Control Tyre Shape with the Tamiya 51448 Insert

The Tamiya 51448 RC DN01 Inner Sponge is built to stabilise the front tyre profile on 2WD buggies, helping deliver more consistent steering. It is a low-effort upgrade to reduce tyre deformation during aggressive driving.

Compatible Chassis and Uses

Designed for DN-01, DT-02 and TRF201 chassis, this sponge also fits Item 51207 Off-Road Wide Grooved Front Tires (60/19). A correctly seated insert keeps the tyre shape closer to its intended profile, aiding grip and control.

Fitting Notes for Best Results

Ensure the sponge sits centrally inside the tyre and that the bead is properly seated on the rim to avoid imbalance. Small adjustments during installation can make a noticeable difference in handling consistency.

Is this insert suitable for sandy or dusty tracks?

Yes, it helps the tyre retain shape when running in loose conditions, which can make steering feel more predictable on sand and dust.

Does it require glue to stay in place?

The sponge usually holds by tyre tension, but some users apply light adhesive or sealant for long endurance runs to prevent movement.

Will it affect tyre balance?

If fitted evenly it should not cause imbalance. Check for lumps after fitting and spin the wheel to verify smooth rotation before running.
