4 Micro-Peak Tyres 19x10

Micro-Peak 19x10 Tyres: Traction and Consistency in Every Corner

Tyres are one of the critical points of any slot car. No matter how much we have worked on the chassis, the bracket, or the motor: if the rubber does not transmit power to the ground effectively, all that effort is wasted. The Micro-Peak 19x10 (ref. CXM086) come in a pack of 4 units and are designed to meet that need with technical criteria, without frills.

Main Features

• Size 19x10: diameter of 19 mm and width of 10 mm, a low-profile format highly demanded in club competition and in small-scale setups.
• Pack of 4 units: enough to equip a complete car with a spare set, or to work with two cars simultaneously during tuning sessions.
• Micro-Peak Profile: tread design with reduced contact area that favours a clean contact point, with less lateral deformation in corners and greater consistency in behaviour.

Function and Performance

The peak profile concentrates the contact patch in a narrow area of the tread. This reduces the surface area that comes into contact with the track, which in practice means less rolling resistance on straights and a more defined pivot point in corners. The result is a car that responds more predictably, which is especially valuable when working with cars that have a high power-to-weight ratio.

The 19x10 size is common on rear axles of small-scale cars or in configurations where a low centre of gravity is prioritised. When fitting these tyres, it is advisable to always check that the diameter is uniform across all four units: a difference of just tenths of a millimetre between tyres on the same axle can cause noticeable jerks and imbalances at high speed.

Compatibility

The reference CXM086 does not specify concrete compatibilities with specific chassis or brands. As a general rule in slot racing, tyres of this size adapt to those axles or rims whose inner diameter matches. We recommend checking the measurements of the car's rims before placing the order to ensure a correct fit.

Mounting and Preparation

• Before mounting, check that the rim is clean and free of residue from previous tyre adhesives.
• If the fit is loose, you can apply a minimal amount of low-viscosity cyanoacrylate adhesive inside the rim.
• Once mounted, it is advisable to true the tyres with a hand lathe or slot lathe to equalise the diameter precisely and eliminate any eccentricity.
• Clean the tread surface with isopropyl alcohol before the first laps to remove the release agent and activate the rubber.

Ideal for…

This pack fits well with preparers and club drivers who need to always have tyres available to replace worn rubber or experiment with different grip configurations. It is also practical for those who maintain several cars in rotation and want to standardise sizes in their car collection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the size 19x10 mean on a slot tyre?

The first number (19) indicates the outer diameter of the tyre in millimetres, and the second (10) its width. Both measurements are essential to ensure that the tyre fits correctly on the rim and does not rub against the chassis or the car's fenders.

How many cars can I equip with this pack of 4 units?

With 4 tyres, you can fully equip one car (front axle and rear axle), or work only with the rear axle of two different cars if the front ones do not require changing.

Is it necessary to true the tyres before using them on track?

It is not strictly mandatory for recreational use, but it is highly recommended if you are looking for maximum performance in competition. Truing ensures that all tyres have exactly the same diameter, eliminating vibrations and improving stability.

What type of track are these tyres compatible with?

Compatibility depends on the car they are mounted on, not the tyre itself. These tyres do not interact directly with the track rail; their performance may vary depending on whether the surface is plastic, wood, or carpet.

How long do these types of tyres last?

Durability depends on many factors: motor power, type of track, braid tension adjustment, and driving style. Under normal club use conditions, a set of tyres can last several sessions before requiring replacement or new truing.

The Micro-Peak 19x10 tyres (ref. CXM086) are a practical and precise option for slot car enthusiasts looking to maintain consistent grip and balanced handling. Whether you're preparing for club racing or fine-tuning a collection car, these slot car tyres in 19x10 mm size offer a reliable contact profile that translates into predictable cornering behaviour. Available in a pack of four units, they are well-suited for rear axle setups on small-scale slot cars where low centre of gravity and tyre uniformity make a real difference on track.

It has not been possible to verify from official sources the exact compound of the rubber (hardness, chemical formulation), nor the brands or chassis references with which compatibility is expressly validated by the manufacturer.
