About product

Yokohama AD08 in the size 245/40 R17, 1:24 scale

This accessory of the Hobby Design brand replaces the rubber of a model with a foursome of rubber tires. It differs from the wider sister in the same line in the first figure of the size, that is in the width of the tread of the real subject.

When to reach for the narrower tire

A width of 245 millimeters matches the rubber of production sports cars and mid-class coupes. On a model it suits where the fender is not widened and a very wide tire would look crammed under it. On cars with staggered tires it tends to be the narrower one that belongs on the steered axle. The AD08 designation is carried by a line of Japanese tires meant for fast driving in the dry. The difference against the widest sizes is most apparent in the height of the sidewall above the lip of the rim.

Fitting and surface

Before fitting, check whether the width of the rim matches the tire. Too narrow a rim will leave the side bulging and the wheel then stands crooked. The sidewall of the tire should not be glossy, as a matte surface comes across as more believable than raw rubber. The lettering on the side can be suggested with a fine brush, but less tends to be more. Overly white lettering pulls attention away from the whole car. Reckon also with a narrower tire revealing a greater part of the rim, so it pays to give care to its inner side as well.

Suitable for

  • production sports cars without a widened body
  • the steered axle of cars with staggered tires
  • modelers who want a faithful sidewall profile
  • rounding out rims of the matching width

FAQ

They differ in the width of the tread of the real subject. The figure 245 means a narrower tire, which suits cars without a widened body.

On real subjects with staggered tires that is the usual solution: narrower tires at the front and wider ones at the rear. Always compare how the wheel sits in the wheel arch, though.

A fitting form is usual with rubber, but the particular form is not stated here.

Lukewarm water and a soft cloth will do. Aggressive cleaners and solvents can attack the surface of the rubber.
