V1 Mini-Z RCP Rubber Rear Tire 5° Very Soft (2 pcs.)

The Hobby Hideaway Verdict: Unmatched Grip for Low-Traction Surfaces! When your track surface is cold or the grip levels are at their lowest, the Marka V1 5-degree tires are the ultimate solution. These "Very Soft" rubber tires are engineered specifically for the rear of 1/28 scale racers, providing a massive contact patch and immediate traction. At Hobby Hideaway, we consider these an essential "emergency" tire for your pit box—perfect for those days when the RCP track feels slick and you need to keep your car planted through every corner.

Premium Italian Engineering Marka Racing tires are world-renowned for their high-quality rubber compounds and consistent performance. The V1 series is designed to provide a stable, predictable feel that allows you to push your car to its absolute limits without fear of the rear end washing out. These tires provide incredible forward drive, making them a favorite for both technical stock racing and high-power modified classes.

Key Features & Technical Specs:

• Very Soft 5° Compound: The softest rating in the Marka lineup, offering maximum bite on low-grip RCP.

• Rear Optimized: 11mm wide profile designed for the rear wheels of RWD and AWD 1/28 scale vehicles.

• V1 Pattern: Proven slick design that maximizes surface contact for better acceleration and braking.

• Stable Side-Bite: Provides excellent lateral grip to prevent high-speed oversteer.

• Consistent Wear: High-quality rubber ensures the tire maintains its performance characteristics throughout its lifespan.

• Universal Fit: Compatible with all standard 20mm diameter rear rims for Mini-Z and similar chassis.

Hobby Hideaway Pro Tip: Because these 5-degree tires are extremely soft, they are best utilized on technical layouts or in colder environments. If you find your car has too much rear grip (causing understeer), try moving to a 10° or 15° Marka tire to balance the handling. Always ensure your tires are clean and free of dust to maintain that signature Marka "sticky" feel!
