This Arrowmax AM-040713 item is a 1/12-scale rear foam tyre rim specified at 32 Shore hardness with carbon construction, offered in the product title as a pair. It is an RC-scale wheel component engineered for use on 1/12 on-road chassis where foam tyres are employed.
Compatibility: the rim is intended for 1/12 on-road kits and common 1/12 rear hubs that accept standard 1/12 foam tyre rims. Check your chassis wheel hub interface before purchase to confirm fitment, as mounting interfaces vary between manufacturers.
Installation notes: mount using standard foam tyre mounting procedures for 1/12 models, making sure the rim seats evenly and the tyre blank is centered before trimming or finishing. Use hub hardware and washers that match your chassis specifications to maintain concentricity and reduce vibration.
Tuning role: the 32 Shore hardness and carbon rim construction affect rear traction and handling balance; harder foam compounds tend to offer more consistent lap times on smoother surfaces while softer compounds increase mechanical grip. Use this rim to fine-tune rear-end bite and mid-corner rotation as part of a broader tyre and setup plan.
Maintenance: inspect the rim bore and mating surfaces regularly for wear, keep mounting faces clean, and replace foam tyres when blockage or deformation affects performance. Carbon components are durable but should be checked for cracks after impacts.
