Precision Front Rim for Mini-Z AWD Racing

This drop-in front rim, model AWD-18/F05/SI, is intended for Mini-Z AWD platforms where small changes to offset and scrub affect steering behaviour. The design focuses on consistent fit and predictable handling on technical indoor circuits.

Installation procedure: remove the OEM front wheel, confirm hex engagement and hub clearance, then mount the rim ensuring the 0.5 offset aligns with tyre profile and body clearance. Use the standard MR-03 AWD hex and wheel nut for secure fixation and repeatable positioning.

Setup considerations: the 0.5 offset produces a measurable change in scrub radius and effective track width compared to neutral rims, which can be used to fine tune turn-in responsiveness and corner entry balance. Test tyre width and foam inserts to achieve the desired front-end bite on carpet or hard track surfaces.

Chassis Compatibility

  • Engineered to fit Kyosho Mini-Z AWD series, including MR-03 AWD chassis.

What should I measure before tuning?

Measure hub clearance, tyre to arch spacing and hex engagement. Accurate baseline measurements help quantify the effect of the 0.5 offset.

Which tyre and insert combos work best?

Narrower tyres with firmer foam can increase steering precision when combined with the 0.5 offset, but testing different compounds yields the best setup for your track.

Any recommended checks after a race session?

Inspect hex fit, wheel runout and tyre seating after sessions to ensure no movement has occurred and that handling remains consistent.
