Technical overview

The AWD-18/R25/SI rear rim is engineered for use on Kyosho Mini-Z AWD platforms and MR-03 AWD compatible hubs, offering a five-spoke geometry with a 2.5mm offset to alter track width in a controlled manner. The design aims for consistent seating and predictable tyre placement relative to suspension pick-up points.

Fitment procedure: align the rim on the Mini-Z AWD rear hub, verify centring, and secure using the original wheel fastening hardware. Use the correct hex driver or wheel nut tool and perform a clearance sweep with the chosen body shell and tyre combination before final torqueing.

Performance notes: a 2.5mm offset produces a measured change in scrub radius and lateral tyre position, useful for tuning turn-in and mid-corner balance. The finish is intentionally neutral to assist setup evaluation without distracting from handling feedback.

How does 2.5mm offset affect scrub radius?

A 2.5mm offset shifts the tyre centreline laterally, which changes the scrub radius proportionally; expect subtle differences in steering feedback rather than radical changes.

What inspection steps after fitting?

Check radial and axial runout, confirm tyre seating, verify clearance at full suspension travel, and perform a low speed roll to detect rubbing.

Recommended tyres and inserts?

Use low-profile Mini-Z tyre profiles with compatible foam inserts matched to your track surface; maintain consistent tyre mounting to reduce setup variability.
