NSR 20x10 Tyres of New Classic Compound: Grip Designed for the Rear Axle

The NSR 20x10 tyres in new classic compound are one of the most valued options within the rear spare parts range of the Italian brand. With measurements of 20 mm in diameter and 10 mm in width, they fit a wide variety of 1/32 scale slot cars and offer the balance that many tuners seek between durability and grip.

Function and Performance

The classic compound from NSR is formulated to provide a consistent and predictable tread. It is not the softest compound in the catalogue —designed for extreme grip on clean track— but rather a versatile option that performs well on different types of surfaces and track conditions. This makes it a common choice for both practice sessions and club competitions where homologation or uniform wear are key factors.

• Measurements: 20 mm diameter × 10 mm width
• Position: rear axle (rear spare part in 1/32 scale)
• Compound: new classic compound NSR
• Brand: NSR

Compatibility and Installation

These tyres are designed to be mounted on rims of the appropriate diameter corresponding to the NSR range. Before installing them, it is advisable to check that the rear rim of your car accepts tyres with a 20 mm outer diameter. The installation is straightforward: they are stretched over the rim carefully to avoid deforming the profile, and if a more precise finish is desired, they can be lightly trued on a tyre truer to achieve the perfect circumference and eliminate any small hops.

NSR is one of the brands with the best assortment of spare parts on the market, making it easy to find the exact compound, size, and hardness for each car configuration and track type.

Installation and Preparation

• Always check the inner diameter of the rim before mounting.
• Use a tyre truer if you seek maximum concentricity.
• Clean the track before running with new tyres to optimise grip transfer.
• Avoid contact with solvents or lubricants that may degrade the compound.

Common Mistakes

The most common mistake is mounting incorrectly sized tyres on the rim, which causes vibrations or imbalance on the rear axle. Always verify the specifications of your rim before ordering. Another common error is not truing the tyres after installation, especially when consistency in competition is sought.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the classic compound and other NSR compounds?

The classic compound offers a balance between durability and grip, being more versatile than ultra-soft compounds, which are optimised for maximum grip but wear out faster. The classic is a good option for continuous use in club or training.

Are they compatible with any 1/32 slot car?

Compatibility depends on the inner diameter of the rear rim of your car. These tyres have a 20 mm outer diameter and 10 mm width. Check the measurements of your rim before installing them to ensure the fit is correct.

Do I need to true these tyres after mounting them?

For recreational use, it is not strictly necessary, but for competition, we recommend truing them. Truing ensures maximum concentricity and eliminates small irregularities that can translate into vibrations or loss of grip.

How many units are included in the pack?

The number of units is specified on the original NSR packaging. Check the product sheet or packaging to confirm before ordering.

Which NSR rims are they commonly used with?

They are designed for rear rims from the NSR range compatible with 20×10 mm tyres. NSR has a wide catalogue of rims in different materials and widths that complement this tyre size.
