A purpose-built front radial tyre for Associated RC 18T, supplied with a 30 degree foam insert to influence sidewall stiffness. The tyre is constructed in rubber and supplied as a pair for 1/18 front wheel fitment, intended for tuning front-end behaviour.
Engineering notes: the radial profile plus the 30 degree insert increases lateral support and modifies the tyre contact mechanics, enabling finer adjustment of steering response and lateral load transfer in chassis setup. Use these tyres as one variable in a systematic tuning workflow.
Mounting procedure: install onto matched Associated RC 18T front rims using standard mounting steps, ensure even bead seating and consistent insert orientation on both wheels, and verify there is no uneven seating or trapped foam before track use.
