Performance Sponge Tyres for F104 Chassis

Hobby drivers upgrading handling will notice the Tamiya 51384 F104 sponge tyres deliver stronger traction and steadier steering on smooth tracks. The design helps drivers maintain a tighter line through bends.

Design Notes and Compatibility

These sponge tyres are made for the Tamiya F104 chassis and use a softer compound than Option Parts Item 54167. With a 44mm inner diameter and 30mm width, they fit standard F104 wheel hubs and increase the tyre to track contact area.

Practical Setup Tips

Fit tyres so the bead sits evenly and check for any imbalance that could affect handling. Clean them after each session and inspect for flat spots. They work best on sealed or very smooth surfaces where the softer compound can be fully exploited.

Outdoor asphalt with rough textures will wear the sponge quickly; they are best kept for smooth, low-abrasion surfaces.
Gluing with a foam-safe tyre adhesive offers the most secure bond; banding can work for short sessions but may allow slippage under hard cornering.
A short break-in over a few laps will help the compound bed in and provide more consistent grip readings for setup adjustments.
