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.

Thanks for the detailed feedback. If using the ReveD tire on carpet, I could possibly see what you are talking about...but otherwise I am still skeptical. I'll keep trying and see if I can feel what you are talking about.

The slight angle on the tyres are to help with camber and turning and transioning angles upon this also built for different terrain types most yokomo is used for asphalt but ware out very quickly as where I live there is no local track that allows me to attend a track such as u have without driving miles from my home which I don't drive

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.
@RoadsideRC3 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.
@sikolikhole3 жыл бұрын
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.

The different profile of the edge of the tire is for clearance on the body's I believe. They also do that on the tires and wheels made for the smaller wheel openings like the Toyota AE86 and other older and smaller body styles.

The instructions that come with the tires - directly from ReveD - says it is for different surfaces. I still think they are a little crazy. :)
@MegaStarlightt3 ай бұрын
Perhaps this detail went unnoticed, but every brand's wheels structurally differ, and I’m not just talking about the surface. I’m referring to the angle on both the inside and outside of the wheel. When you take this into account, you'll notice significant differences, especially with the camber angle. For instance, let’s say you’ve mounted a set of Réwe D tires and set the rear camber angle to 3°, and the front to 7°. Later, if you switch to DS Racing tires and assume that the previous camber settings will work without adjustment, you'd be mistaken. Even a half-degree difference can impact handling stability and speed. Therefore, you should always reassess the camber angles when changing tires. Moreover, even if the pressure contact area of the tires with the ground is set to the same degree, there will still be variations between brands. That’s why it's essential to always factor in these differences when making adjustments.

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.

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..
