Compact Big Bore Shocks for Improved Control

Drivers seeking sharper steering response should consider the Kyosho W5308GM VVC Big Bore Short Shock Set. Built for the V-One R4 series, these short shocks deliver steadier mid-corner grip and reduced chatter on bumpy tracks. The gunmetal surface helps protect components from wear while maintaining a race-oriented aesthetic.

  • Design: VVC Big Bore

These shocks are a practical upgrade for competitive drivers and club racers who want reliable damping and a tougher finish on their V-One R4 cars.

How do I tune the shocks for high grip tracks?

Use slightly stiffer springs and firmer oil to reduce body roll; small increments allow you to find the balance between grip and responsiveness.

Will the gunmetal finish chip under heavy use?

The finish is durable but can mark if exposed to hard impacts; regular inspection and gentle cleaning will extend its appearance life.

Can I rebuild these shocks at home?

Yes, they are serviceable with basic shock tools; changing oil and seals is straightforward and helps keep performance consistent.

Are these suitable for bumpy outdoor circuits?

Their increased oil volume helps absorb repeated impacts, making them a good match for rougher outdoor tracks when tuned correctly.
