Precision grip for M-chassis 1/10 runners

The Tamiya 53215 M-Chassis Slick Tires are built for 1/10 scale on-road models, prioritising a clean contact patch and steady handling on sealed tracks. These tyres suit drivers aiming for predictable steering and traction.

Core features of these Tamiya slicks

Smooth Rubber: Slick construction increases surface contact to stabilise high speed runs and improve cornering consistency.
Designed for M-Chassis: Compatible with Tamiya M-chassis cars, including compact on-road kits, offering reliable fitment.
Physical Specs: Width 24mm with a 55mm outside diameter, matching standard M-chassis tyre dimensions.

Gluing and setup

To avoid tyre slip on the rim, bond these tyres using CA glue. A solid glue job preserves alignment and performance during aggressive use.

Can these tyres be used for drifting practice?

They are intended for on-road grip rather than sliding applications. Drifting typically requires different tyre compounds and tread choices.

What are the exact size measurements?

These tyres measure 24mm in width with an outer diameter of 55mm, which aligns with common M-chassis sizing.

Do I need inserts with these slicks?

Inserts are optional depending on wheel type and desired tyre shape. Many users run them glued directly without inserts for on-road setups.

Which glue should I use for best hold?

CA glue is recommended to bond the tyre to the rim securely and prevent rotation under load.

How should I store these tyres between events?

Store them flat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to avoid hardening or deformation of the rubber.
