MBW005 Inner Sponge - LAZER Mini-Z MB-010: Performance Effects

Where the insert sits on MB-010 models

The MBW005 slots inside LAZER-branded Mini-Z tyres that are paired with the MB-010 chassis to support the tyre shape and encourage predictable behaviour. It is an internal component intended for maintenance and feel improvement.

Construction and material choices

Produced from closed-cell foam and shaped to typical MB-010 tyre interiors, the insert offers a compromise between softness and structural support so tyres keep a consistent section without harsh rebound.

Real-world impact on driving and consistency

With the tyre cross-section held more steadily, drivers will find steering and throttle responses repeat more closely between runs, aiding set-up and driver confidence.

Recommended user profile

Hobbyists and display collectors using LAZER Mini-Z tyres on MB-010 chassis will value the MBW005 as a simple spare part for keeping tyres consistent and predictable.

For a no-fuss maintenance option, the Kyosho MBW005 inner sponge helps preserve tyre geometry and supports consistent handling on LAZER Mini-Z MB-010 builds.

Push the foam gently into the tyre until it seats evenly against the inner wall, checking around the circumference for a smooth fit. Trim or reposition if any folds appear before mounting the tyre on the rim.
The insert primarily affects tyre compliance and contact patch; major suspension changes are not usually required, but you may notice slightly different feedback that could prompt minor trim adjustments.
Closed-cell foam resists water and contaminants better than open-cell varieties, but avoid harsh solvents. If the insert becomes damaged or compressed, replacement is recommended for consistent performance.
By stabilising tyre shape and the contact patch, the insert helps make lap-to-lap behaviour more consistent, which can aid repeatability and driver confidence even if outright lap times change little.
