Low temp tires for RC in Winter

>> Tech Tip - Wheels >> Low temp tires for RC in Winter

Low-temperature rubber tires are specifically designed for cold weather or low-temperature environments and are commonly used on 1:10 on-road RC cars to maintain traction when the surface or ambient temperature is too low for standard rubber tires to function effectively.

Standard rubber tires tend to harden in cold conditions, reducing grip and making the car prone to sliding or losing control. Low-temperature rubber tires, in contrast, are made from softer compounds that remain flexible in cold environments, providing better traction. In cold weather, low-temp tires allow the car to maintain stable cornering performance and reduce the risk of spinouts. This is critical for competitive racing where precise handling is essential.
