4 F1 tyres

Take your F1 to another level with high-grip supersoft tyres

When grip makes the difference between winning and losing a tenth, tyre choice matters. This set of 4 tyres (reference CXM007) is specifically designed for F1 slot cars, featuring a supersoft compound that offers high grip from the very first lap.

Main features

• Supersoft compound with high grip: maximum adhesion on standard track surfaces.
• Complete set of 4 tyres: covers both front and rear axles.
• Designed for F1 slot cars.

Track performance

A supersoft tyre works particularly well on smooth circuits or in race sessions where warming up is quick. The soft rubber slightly yields under the weight of the car when cornering, increasing the contact patch and, with it, lateral traction. The result is less understeer in chicanes and a cleaner exit from corners.

The high grip also translates into a more responsive feel at the controls: the car enters corners earlier and exits with more push. Ideal if you’re looking to improve lap times without altering the chassis mechanics.

Mounting and preparation

Before mounting the tyres, ensure that the rims are thoroughly cleaned to remove any glue residue or dirt. A gentle and even sanding of the tread —using a lathe or grinder— will ensure that the tyre rolls perfectly centred and without vibrations. Avoid using aggressive degreasers on the soft compound: they can alter the grip properties.

Ideal for…

• Club racers competing with F1 slot cars looking to reduce their best times.
• Enthusiasts wanting to renew the rolling stock of their F1 and regain the original grip.
• Tuners adjusting the car's behaviour through compound choice.

Considerations

Supersoft compounds offer the highest grip available, but they also wear out faster than medium or hard tyres. In long sessions or on abrasive surfaces, it’s advisable to regularly check the condition of the tyres. It’s recommended to always have a spare set on hand.

Frequently asked questions

How many tyres are included in this set?

The pack includes 4 tyres, sufficient to equip both the front and rear axles of an F1 slot car.

What scale are these tyres designed for?

They are designed for F1 slot cars. If you have doubts about the exact compatibility with your model, please check the measurements of the original tyre before placing your order.

What advantages does a supersoft compound have over a medium hardness one?

The supersoft offers greater grip from the start, resulting in lower lap times under normal conditions. Its downside is higher wear, especially on abrasive tracks or in very long sessions.

Is it necessary to true the tyres before use?

It is not strictly necessary, but it is highly recommended. A pass through a lathe or grinder ensures that the tread is perfectly centred, eliminating possible vibrations and maximising the grip of the compound.

What glue should be used for mounting?

The most common is low-viscosity cyanoacrylate applied in small amounts on the rim. Avoid excess: it could soak into the compound and reduce its adhesion.
