Exotek Racing: F1 1/10 Front Rubber Tires V2 40X, Yellow-Firm

The yellow sets are best suited for hot asphalt racing weather or low grip tracks and creates less aggressive steering compared to the 38X RED fronts. Select the front tire depending simply if you want more or less steering or stability. The best front tire 90% of the time are 38x or 40x fronts.

V2 Firm Yellow 40X (40 celsius) compound with an updated tooled mold that produces a more rounded tread for improved durability versus the v1 front tire.

Designed 100% from the ground up, and taking cues from the new full size F1 wheel disk regulations, Exotek has taken all of the best elements of RC F1 tires from the past and engineered them into the ultimate F1 rubber tire and wheel set up.

On top of that Exotek has contracted to have these produced by the premier RC rubber touring car tire factory in Japan, using premium touring car rubber compounds and nylon for wheels.

The front tires are designed with a wide profile for maximum contact patch while the sidewalls are designed with 2 different sidewall diameters. The larger inner diameter serves two purposes:

1. Larger diameter inner wheel gives more suspension pin clearance and would allow for longer front springs and pins designs in the future for increased front end dampening.
2. The inner sidewall becomes slightly stiffer than the outer sidewall. The effect generates less 'twitchiness' at low speeds while increasing front bite at higher corner speeds as the tire load spreads to the outer 'softer' tire sidewall.

To top it off, special heavy duty nylon wheel decals are included for that finishing scale look!

Note: For experienced racers only. Gluing and assembly is required (instructions included). Sold as 1 pair of rubber tire with foam inserts. Wheels are not included.
