Blue Reston Sponge Tires by Tamiya for Mini 4WD

These blue Reston sponge tyres from Tamiya offer an accessible way to improve grip on your Mini 4WD. The sponge compound helps the tyre conform to the track, delivering steadier cornering and improved traction where it matters.

Compatibility and Handling Notes

Made with racers in mind, the sponge material increases the contact patch and grip, working well with many Tamiya Mini 4WD chassis types. They are a sensible choice when tuning handling for twisty circuits.

Race Use and Setup Tips

Ideal for events demanding better corner stability, these tyres suit both beginners and experienced hobbyists fine-tuning suspension or weight distribution. They balance grip and roll resistance for consistent lap performance.

Tracks with tight chicanes and frequent direction changes will see the biggest gains, where extra traction improves exit speed.
The softer sponge can add a small amount of rolling resistance, but the improved corner speed often offsets this on technical layouts.
Keep tyres clean of glue and debris, inspect for flat spots after hard runs, and swap tyres between axles to even out wear.
