FAQ

Stabilise your Mini Cooper's handling with Tamiya inserts

The Tamiya 53204 M-Chassis Sponge Inserts are compatible with Tamiya Mini Cooper wheels and many HPI mini super radials, giving increased traction and steadier handling. The foam insert supports the tyre sidewall to reduce squirm under cornering, helping drivers pick a more consistent racing line or enjoy a calmer run around the neighbourhood.

What the Tamiya 53204 inserts bring to your car

Compatibility: Designed for the Tamiya Mini Cooper wheel fitment and cross-compatible with HPI mini super radials of the same size.
Material: Tough sponge that keeps its shape while providing useful compliance for grip.
Functionality: Improves lateral stability and overall tyre bite for controlled turns.
Quantity: Pack includes four inserts, enough for one vehicle set.

Will these inserts work with foam tyres or rubber tyres only?

They are intended for rubber tyre applications found on M-Chassis and compatible mini radials, not for full foam tyre setups.

How do I tell when an insert needs replacing?

Replace inserts if you see permanent compression, tears, or if handling becomes unpredictable despite correct tyre pressure.

Can these inserts be trimmed for custom fit?

Minor trimming is possible but proceed carefully to keep the insert thickness even; uneven trimming will hurt balance and performance.

Do they affect tyre mounting or glueing?

Inserts sit inside the tyre and do not interfere with glueing the tyre bead to the rim, but ensure the insert is positioned before final bead bonding.
