A full tire test of RC drift tires!
I have been wanting to do this for awhile.
I took my Sakura D5s RWD rc drift car (www.ebay.com/itm/133839149294...) to our new local track at Music City RC. I brought with me a whole slew of new drift tires:
- ReveD AS-01 tires: www.avantlink.com/click.php?t...
- Yokomo DRA: amzn.to/3cgkjbE
- Yokomo DRC: amzn.to/3dUs0Vx
- MST CS-R silver / gold / green: www.avantlink.com/click.php?t...
- DS Racing Finix Series LF-3: www.avantlink.com/click.php?t...
- DS Racing RWD-FF-Zero Mark II: www.avantlink.com/click.php?t...
I put all of these tires to test on the p-tile used at the track.
It was really interesting to see the difference in how each tire performed.
I drifted a circle to gauge angle and speed. Then, I did an acceleration test to see the traction level of each tire. Lastly, I tested each tires side-bite on a decreasing radius drift test.
Check the full video to see the results!
Tell me down in the comments what tire you use!

Great video as always, interesting to see documented time for speed! For the tire side wall, the square-ish side wall tires give a more cut/bite into the surface while the round side wall tires keep a constant contact when camber is changed. Which the square-ish ones give a more aggressive feel and the round ones give a smoother feel. So this will be noticeable on chassis with mid-high caster/kpi/trailing front end setups or/and rear setup that rolls a lot via hcg/low roll center/etc, as these are tunes where decent amount of camber change is forced. These are just personal and local people at the track findings, so could be different for someone else.

Yeah there is always personal preference and a lot of the comps are running ds racing lf5 or the FFFF tires so keep that in mind as well when choosing the next batch of tires. As far as the foams are concerned every wheel set you get from mst has the foams so it’s more abundant to get rims to change up rather than the foams for different wheels they also sell rubber rings to eliminate the foam as well.

I got into rc drifting partially cause your videos, I do not regret it. There is some much to learn and I've learned a ton. Thank you for making vids man. DRC tires are meant for low reaction surface such as carpet, color concrete and p-tile. They are also softer and square. DRA tires are for a high traction surface, asphalt, and bare concrete. These are much harder and rounded. Reve-D are a comp Tire so they'll be the similar to the DRC's. Wheels are also a big factor, a softer wheel will flex, letting the tire grip a bit more. Mixing tire sets front to back could have some surprising results.

@RoadsideRC 2 жыл бұрын

Tony - glad to hear you are enjoying drifting! What chassis do you have? We have changed to different fronts occasionally. In fact, that is probably what I will do with a few of these leftover sets I now have. I will end up giving them away, or using them as fronts.

I have the YD2 it was an E but I have the rear motor conversion. I like the DRA's for the front. They are harder and rounded they seem to slip more, I haven't tried them on p-tile yet though. I have mainly used the DRC's and reve-d tires on ptile. I just got my car acting the way I wanted so I was comfortable mixing tires.

I drift on epoxy sealed concrete that can get a bit dusty sometimes. We run MST Golds but some guys have started switching to the AS-01 because they are easier to get. On this surface they are similar, the gold seems to have more side bite but it's hard to tell. We can run together with those tires.

@RoadsideRC Жыл бұрын

Interesting! Our local track was an epoxy concrete and we also used MST Gold for the longest time. We then decided to try Yokomo DRA - and they helped us slow the cars down a lot. It was really nice. But - that matched the size of our track at the time as well. It was rather small.

The tires go on directional for fitment. the inside of the tire is slightly larger than the outside of the tire. This is to help keep the tires on the rim.

By the way I really enjoy your videos keep up the awesome work

Hiya! I drift on vinyl planks, they are both lightly textured w fake wood grain and super slick. I run a rear top mount MST RMX w stock gearing on a D10 motor and 10BL120 ESC. My goto tires are as follows... 1) Grip - MST Gold, hands down the perfect speed tire on this floor w lots of drift. 2) Control - MST Silver, the perfect combo of slip and grip, slows down your sessions but keeps them mildly fast. 3) Ice Dancing - DS Racing LF-3, these are the perfect ice dancing tires for a slow precise drift session.

* * * SUB'D * * * i am about to get my first rc drift car in a week or so. but i do NOT like the big wheel / stretched tire look. i would like to go with the old school 14-15in wheel meatier tire look on my build. i just dont know where to look / start etc. can you help point me in the right direction ? i REALLY love the watanabe RS style wheels but in a smaller diameter with a thicker tire that has a bigger sidewall... links would be greatly appreciated.. thank you . * * * also * * * i have a 95 mustang gt that i am building IRL as my drift car. dont seem to see that body style in the 1/10th RC world. do you by chance know where i could get one ? ( the only link i did find said they are discontinued )

Hi there! Good news - I think you are in luck on both accounts. There is a company that makes a smaller looking rim. It still uses the same tires, but the outer lip of the rim is designed to look like an extension of the tire. This gives the illusion of running a smaller diameter rim. I *believe these might be them: supergdrift.com/store/product-category/rims/scale-dynamics-rims/ For bodies - they are out there, I promise. Super-G also has this one...which is about as close as you get easily: supergdrift.com/store/product/2003-ford-mustang-cobra-body-set-aplastics/ Check out the DeltaPlastik, Aplastics, and McAllister Racing bodies. Hope this helps!

It is that surface you see the car on in the video. It is a plastic tile that is frequently used in office buildings / commercial areas.

I think the reve d's different left-right shoulder shape is more functional for the front end. Due to the caster effect, the tires will create some camber angle when the steering is turned during drifting. The leading and trailing tires (when the car is in a drift) will then have different contact points to the floor, one tire will touch the floor with the outer shoulder and the opposite tire will touch the floor with the inner shoulder, and I should think that reve d engineers optimize the shoulder shapes to allow for more effective drifting..
