Sirocco Dirty Raid Tyre 25x10

The Mitoos Sirocco Dirty: controlled grip for the most demanding raids

When the setup of a raid car requires low grip on a clean track, the choice of tyre makes a difference. The Sirocco Dirty Raid Tyre 25x10 from Mitoos (ref. CXM094D) is made from low-grip rubber with a distinctive opposing diamond tread pattern that recreates the appearance of a muddy tyre, providing both aesthetics and differentiated behaviour on the track.

Technical specifications

• Outer diameter: 25 mm
• Width: 10 mm
• Material: low-grip rubber
• Tread: opposing diamond with mud effect (Dirty)
• Compatibility: slot rims with an outer diameter of 16.5 to 19 mm
• Application: raid cars, vans and trucks

Function and performance

The Sirocco range from Mitoos is designed to meet the specific needs of raid in slot: limited traction, controlled sliding, and a scenery consistent with off-road categories. The low-grip compound is key in configurations where the car should not cling excessively to the track, simulating the behaviour of a vehicle rolling on dirt or compacted mud.

The opposing diamond tread is not just decorative: it distributes contact with the surface unevenly, reducing the effective footprint and, with it, the grip. Ideal for adjusting the setup when the car shows too much traction with slick or higher-grip tyres.

Compatibility and mounting

The Sirocco Dirty 25x10 fits any slot rim with an outer diameter between 16.5 and 19 mm, making it suitable for a wide variety of raid chassis on the market. For optimal mounting, it is recommended to check that the rim is clean and centred before fitting the tyre, and to check the rounding with a lathe or dremel if maximum diameter uniformity is sought.

Ideal for…

• Assemblers and competitors in raid slot categories looking to adjust grip levels.
• Those building scenery vans or trucks needing a tyre with a muddy appearance.
• Preparers combining different compounds on the same vehicle to balance behaviour.

Considerations

As a low-grip tyre, its behaviour changes significantly depending on the condition of the track. On surfaces with dust or wax, sliding may be greater than expected; on well-cleaned and untreated tracks, it offers the performance for which it is designed. Always test on your circuit before defining the final setup.

Frequently asked questions

What types of rims is the Sirocco Dirty 25x10 compatible with?

It is compatible with slot rims that have an outer diameter between 16.5 and 19 mm, regardless of the brand or material of the rim.

What is the difference between the Sirocco Dirty and other raid tyres?

The Sirocco Dirty is made from a low-grip compound and features an opposing diamond tread with a mud effect finish. This differentiates it from slick or higher-grip tyres, providing less traction and a more authentic appearance for off-road raid cars.

Is it necessary to round the tyre after fitting it?

It is not mandatory, but if you seek maximum performance in competition, a slight rounding with a lathe ensures a uniform diameter and a more regular rolling.

For what scale are these tyres intended?

The available information indicates compatibility by measurements (25 mm diameter and 10 mm width), applicable to raid vehicles in the usual slot scales. Check your rim specifications to confirm exact compatibility.

Can I use the Sirocco Dirty on rally cars or only in raid?

They are specifically designed for the raid category (cars, vans, and trucks), although nothing prevents you from trying them in other categories if the measurements are compatible with your rim and you seek to reduce grip.

The Mitoos Sirocco Dirty 25x10 is a low-grip rubber tyre designed for raid slot cars, vans, and trucks. Featuring a cross-diamond tread pattern with a mud effect finish, it delivers controlled sliding on clean slot tracks. Compatible with all slot rims between 16.5 and 19 mm outer diameter, it is an essential setup tool for raid slot racing enthusiasts looking to fine-tune traction levels on their builds.
