Avant Slot Tyres 11.5 x 10.5 mm: four units ready to mount
With continuous use on track, the tyres of a slot car lose diameter, profile, and grip. Replacing them in time makes the difference between a car that skids in every corner and one that runs with precision and consistency. This pack of four Avant Slot tyres of 11.5 x 10.5 mm (reference AV20319) allows you to replace all four wheels at once, ensuring consistent performance from the very first metre.
Function and performance
Tyres are one of the elements that most influence the behaviour of a slot car: they are the only real point of contact between the chassis and the track. A worn or hardened tyre over time causes loss of traction, instability in corners, and irregular lap times. Renewing them with units of the same dimensions as the originals ensures that the car's balance — factory adjusted by Avant Slot — remains intact.
- Outer diameter: 11.5 mm

Compatibility
These tyres are designed as specific replacements for Avant Slot models that come with this size as standard. Before ordering, check in the manual or technical sheet of your car that the dimensions 11.5 x 10.5 mm correspond to the original tyres of your model. If in doubt, the Ministry of Hobby team can help you identify the correct reference.
Mounting and preparation
Mounting is straightforward: remove the used tyres from the rims, fit the new ones ensuring they are well seated and centred, and check that the diameter is uniform across all four wheels. If you use a lathe or grinding tool, you can equalise the diameter more precisely and reduce vibrations while running. A light sanding on track with fine paper helps to clean the surface and activate the compound before the first warm-up laps.
Common mistakes
- Not checking the size before purchasing: different Avant Slot models may use tyres of different dimensions. Always confirm that 11.5 x 10.5 mm is the correct size for your car.
- Renewing only the worn axle: replacing only the rear or front tyres can create imbalances. It is most advisable to change them all at once.
- Fitting tyres without checking centring: a poorly seated tyre on the rim introduces vibrations that affect the guide, braids, and the overall stability of the car.
Frequently asked questions
How many units are included in the pack?
The pack contains 4 tyres, sufficient to equip all four wheels of a slot car.
How do I know if these tyres are compatible with my car?
Check the manual of your Avant Slot model or the technical sheet of the car to confirm that the original tyres measure 11.5 x 10.5 mm. If in doubt, contact us and we will guide you.
How often should I change the tyres on my slot car?
It depends on usage and the type of track. On abrasive tracks or with heavy use, wear is faster. A good indicator is when the outer diameter has noticeably decreased or the rubber has lost elasticity and grip.
Can I grind these tyres with a lathe?
Yes. Grinding allows you to equalise the diameter of all four wheels and improve contact with the track, resulting in greater stability and more consistent lap times.
Are they suitable for universal track and sport track?
The type of track does not affect the tyre size, which depends on the car model and its rims. What matters is that the dimensions match those of the car, regardless of the track system you use.
