The 30 Shore compound offers a perfect balance. It is soft enough to provide immediate "bite" and mechanical grip, yet firm enough to prevent the tire from "folding over" during high-speed cornering, which can lead to traction rolls.
Detailed Technical Specifications
1. Specialized Rubber Compound
-
Shore 30 Rating: On the Shore durometer scale, 30 is considered a medium-soft compound. It is stickier than the stock tires that come in ReadySets, significantly reducing understeer (pushing) in the front or oversteer (sliding) in the rear.
-
Low Profile Design: Engineered to maintain a low center of gravity, which is critical for the 1/27 scale Mini-Z chassis.
2. 8.5mm "Narrow" Versatility
-
Front Fitment: The 8.5mm width is the standard front tire size for most Mini-Z racers, providing precise steering response.
-
AWD Fitment: For Mini-Z AWD (MA series) cars, these are used on all four corners to provide consistent, predictable drifting or grip racing characteristics.
-
Rim Compatibility: Designed to fit all standard 8.5mm Kyosho and aftermarket aluminum wheels.
3. High Grip "Slick" Pattern
-
Surface Contact: The slick surface maximizes the contact patch with the track. As the tires "scrub in" during the first few laps, the grip level increases as the rubber reaches its optimal operating temperature.
-
Consistency: Kyosho’s manufacturing process ensures that all four tires in the pack have identical density and wall thickness for balanced handling.
