F22 Rear Tyres for 1970s F1 Slot Cars from Policar (Slot.it)
When the original tyres on your Policar single-seater start to show wear or loss of grip, the answer lies in this direct replacement: the F22 rear tyres, specifically designed for the 1970s F1 cars in the Policar range, Slot.it's high-fidelity line dedicated to the great single-seaters of that golden era of Formula 1.
Function and Performance
The rear tyre is, along with the guide, the element that most influences the behaviour of a slot car. A worn or hardened tyre reduces grip drastically, causes unexpected off-track excursions, and makes the car lose the precision that characterises it. Replacing them with the correct spare part — the one specified by the brand for each model — is the simplest and most effective way to restore the car's factory handling.
The F22 tyres are made from the appropriate rubber for the rear wheels of these single-seaters, ensuring the correct dimensional fit and optimal power transmission to the track.
Compatibility
These tyres are intended for the 1970s F1 models from Policar (Slot.it) that use the DWG 1219 specification. Check your car's documentation or the reference engraved on the original wheels to confirm compatibility before fitting.
Fitting and Preparation
The replacement process is straightforward: remove the rear wheel from the axle, take off the worn tyre, and fit the new one, ensuring it sits evenly across the rim. If you seek a more precise finish, a light turning on a wheel lathe will allow you to achieve perfect concentricity and further improve grip.
Before returning to the track, check that both rear tyres are at the same level to avoid traction imbalances.
