Kyosho Mini-Z 8.5mm Racing Radial Tire (4) (20 Shore)
About this part
Tire Overview:
This is a set of four Kyosho 8.5mm Racing Radial Tires. These radial tires are used with the Mini-Z Racer series kits, and feature a special patterned edge that is effective on both urethane and carpet surfaces. Specific left and right sides feature a directional pattern and the durometer hardness rating is etched on the inside of the tire.
Choose from 20, 30 or 40 Shore compounds (softest to hardest). Use different compounds to tune the level of traction for various track conditions; softer when you need more grip and harder when you want less grip.
NOTE: These tires must be used with 8.5mm wide wheels.

These tires are way better than the basic ones included with the car.
Tires for Mini-Z’s. Check what size your Mini-Z uses because Kyosho sells different size rubber
Three reviews, all rated 5 out of 5, describe these 8.5mm radial tires for Mini-Z cars. Reviewers report strong grip and easy fitting, with one noting no glue is needed and the tires fit over the old ones after peeling them off. One reviewer says they are a clear upgrade over the basic tires included with the car, and another advises checking the Mini-Z's tire size because Kyosho sells several sizes. One review mentions a 30 Shore variant, while another does not specify hardness. The reviews are few and brief, and none describe durability or wear over time.
