Compatibility
These tyres are intended for the M026 rim. Before placing your order, we recommend verifying that your car indeed uses this rim to ensure perfect compatibility. If you have any doubts, check the reference of your current rim or contact us.
Installation and Preparation
Installing this type of tyre is straightforward: simply fit them onto the M026 rim, ensuring they are well centred and free of play. For a more precise finish in competition, it is common to machine the tyre diameter with a lathe or grinding tool, although for recreational or display use, direct mounting is more than sufficient.
If you seek uniform grip across all four tyres, it is advisable to check that they are all at the same height once mounted on the rims and that the assembly rolls without eccentricities.
Ideal for…
- Enthusiasts looking to replace the original tyres of their car without changing the rim set.
- Collectors wanting to maintain the classic appearance with tread on their models.
- Club racers needing a quick and direct replacement for the M026 rim.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many units does this pack include?
The pack contains 4 tyres, enough to equip all four wheels of a slot car.
Are they compatible with any rim?
No. These tyres are specifically designed for the M026 rim. It is important to verify that your car uses this rim before placing your order.
Does the tread affect grip on track?
Tyres with tread are primarily aimed at recreational or display use, providing a more realistic appearance. For high-level competition, smooth tyres are usually preferred, although in classic categories, treaded tyres may be the regulation.
