The MZT302-20B is designed for the high-torque environment of Mini-Z racing. By utilizing a Wide (LM) footprint, these tires provide a massive contact patch that keeps the rear of the car planted during hard acceleration out of corners. The 20 Shore rating indicates a softer rubber compound that "conforms" to the track surface, providing superior mechanical grip on RCP tracks, wood, or fine-fiber carpets.
Detailed Technical Specifications
1. Wide-Format Racing Profile
-
LM (Le Mans) Specific: Extra-wide width designed to fit LM-spec rear wheels and wide chassis configurations (e.g., MR-03LM).
-
High-Grip Slick Surface: A smooth tread pattern ensures 100% surface contact, essential for transferring brushless motor power to the ground without wheel spin.
-
Low-Profile Sidewall: Engineered to provide a stable foundation, reducing "tire squirm" that can lead to unpredictable handling at high speeds.
2. 20 Shore Compound Performance
-
Soft Density (20°): The 20 Shore rating is optimized for maximum traction. It is ideal for tracks with low to medium natural grip or for racers looking for an "aggressive" rear-end hookup.
-
Rapid Warm-Up: The soft compound reaches its optimal operating temperature within the first few laps, ensuring consistent performance for the duration of the heat.
-
Black Carbon Rubber: High-quality synthetic rubber that resists "glazing," maintaining its tacky surface over multiple race sessions.
3. Tuning & Compatibility
-
Rear Optimized: While these are wide-spec tires, they are specifically formulated for the Rear Axle to manage power delivery and prevent oversteer.
-
Platform Compatibility: Fits Kyosho Mini-Z MR-02, MR-03 (LM/Wide), and MA-020/030 (Wide) models.
-
Value Pack: Includes 4 tires, allowing for a fresh set and a spare pair in the pit box.
