Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the SBR 40 compound and why does it matter? — The SBR 40 is a rubber formulation specifically developed by Losi for the LST 3XL-E. This compound provides an optimised balance of grip and durability, ensuring your vehicle handles predictably across different terrain types and weather conditions. Using the correct Losi compound ensures your vehicle performs exactly as designed by the manufacturer.
- Will these tyres fit my LST 3XL-E? — Yes, these are genuine Losi parts specifically engineered for the LST 3XL-E platform. They will fit perfectly without requiring any modifications to your vehicle's suspension, geometry or wheels.
- Are these replacement tyres or should I buy a full set? — These are individual replacement tyres. The quantity in this listing is a single tyre, so if you need to replace all four tyres on your LST 3XL-E, you will need to purchase multiple units. Many RC enthusiasts keep spare tyres in different compounds to adjust their vehicle's handling characteristics.
- How often should I replace my RC tyres? — Tyre life depends on how frequently you drive, the terrain you bash on, and your driving style. Competitive drivers might replace tyres between races, whilst casual bashers might get many months of use from a set. When you notice reduced grip or visible wear, it's time to order fresh tyres from RC Model Shop.
- Can I use these tyres on other Losi models? — These tyres are specifically engineered for the LST 3XL-E. Whilst some Losi models may share wheel fitments, we recommend confirming compatibility with your specific model before purchasing, as different platforms may use different tyre sizes and compounds.
