Tyres 12 x 10.5mm (x4)

Four Avant Slot tyres of 12 x 10.5 mm to keep the car glued to the track

Tire wear is one of the factors that most affects the on-track behaviour of any slot car. Over time, the rubber loses grip, the car skids in corners, and control suffers. This pack of four Avant Slot tyres of 12 x 10.5 mm (reference AV20320) is designed to replace the originals of compatible models and regain that grip that makes the difference between a clean lap and a track departure.

Features and function

• Dimensions: 12 mm diameter x 10.5 mm width.
• Contents: 4 tyres per pack.
• Reference: AV20320.
• Manufacturer: Avant Slot, a brand specialised in resin slot cars and high-precision spare parts for 1/32 scale.

As an official Avant Slot spare part, the tyres are designed with the appropriate tolerances for the axles and wheels of the brand's models, ensuring a correct fit and predictable behaviour from the very first moment.

Installation and preparation

The replacement process is straightforward: remove the worn tyre from the wheel, clean the contact surface, and fit the new tyre ensuring it is well centred and wrinkle-free. To fine-tune the diameter and achieve a perfectly cylindrical surface, it is recommended to true the tyres on the car itself before using them on the track. This step, common among club preparers, significantly improves contact with the track and reduces vibrations.

Compatibility

These tyres are intended for Avant Slot models that use this specific size. Always check the diameter and width of your car's original tyres before ordering, as Avant Slot has several references depending on the model. If in doubt, consult the car manual or the official spare parts catalogue of the brand.

Ideal for…

• Enthusiasts who want to keep their Avant Slot cars in perfect running condition.
• Club preparers who need reliable spare parts with exact measurements.
• Collectors who also take their models to the track and seek the best possible performance.

Common mistakes

• Fitting incorrect size tyres: a tyre larger than necessary may rub against the body or chassis; a smaller one loses contact with the track. Always check the measurements before purchasing.
• Not truing after installation: new tyres are rarely perfectly round. Truing them is a key step for clean running.
• Mixing tyres of different wear: whenever possible, replace all four at once to maintain balanced performance.

Frequently asked questions

Does this pack include four tyres or two?

The AV20320 pack includes four tyres, enough to equip all four wheels of a slot car.

Can I use these tyres on cars from other brands?

As long as the size of 12 x 10.5 mm matches that of your car's wheels, it is possible. Compatibility depends solely on the dimensions, not on the brand of the car.

Do I need special tools to fit them?

No. The fitting is done by hand. For subsequent truing, it is advisable to have a truing stand or a specific slot preparation tool.

How often should tyres be changed on a slot car?

It depends on usage and track type. In frequent competition sessions, it is common to check them after each event. In recreational use, it is sufficient to inspect them periodically and change them when grip decreases or visible deformations appear.

Is it necessary to true the tyres after fitting them?

It is not mandatory, but it is highly recommended. Truing equalises the diameter of all four tyres and improves contact with the track surface, especially in circuit driving.
