Description
Rovan Street Tires on Black Wheels with Yellow Bead Overview
The Rovan Street Tires package delivers a complete mounted tire and wheel setup built for stable traction, controlled handling, and consistent performance on 1/5 scale street and hard-pack surfaces. This genuine set includes two 170×80 rear tires and two 170×60 front tires mounted on reinforced black wheels with yellow bead rings and 24mm hex hubs for direct installation and secure drivetrain engagement. As a result, the assembly maintains smooth tracking and predictable response during high-speed runs.
The Slate tread pattern supports steady acceleration, controlled cornering, and reliable braking response on compact surfaces. In addition, the rubber compound helps resist chunking and uneven wear. Therefore, performance remains consistent during extended street sessions.
Tread Pattern and Surface Control – Rovan Street Tires
Rovan Street Tires use a stable tread layout designed for predictable grip on asphalt, packed dirt, and hard surfaces. Consequently, the tires track smoothly while limiting wandering at speed. As a result, steering response stays consistent and corner exits feel more controlled.
The reinforced carcass supports heavier 1/5 scale vehicles. At the same time, the structure limits sidewall flex. Therefore, the tires remain stable under braking loads and during fast direction changes.
Wheel Design, Bead Retention, and 24mm Hex Fitment
The black wheels use reinforced construction built to handle high rotational loads. In addition, each wheel uses a 24mm hex hub interface for standard 1/5 scale Baja drivetrains. As a result, torque transfers efficiently without slippage or hub damage during hard launches and braking.
Yellow bead rings clamp the tire bead firmly to the wheel. Therefore, the assembly helps prevent tire slip during aggressive throttle hits and repeated braking cycles. Pre-mounted construction also supports consistent balance and concentric alignment. Consequently, vibration stays minimal and high-speed control remains smooth.
Fitment and Application – Rovan Street Tires
This tire and wheel set fits standard Baja-style hubs using 24mm hex drive systems and supports staggered 170×80 rear and 170×60 front tire sizes. Therefore, the matched four-wheel configuration promotes balanced handling and predictable tracking on 1/5 scale platforms.
All current Rofun 1/5 scale platforms, including LT, Baja-style buggies, trucks, and short course models, use a 24 mm wheel hex. However, a few 4×4 models such as the D5, F5, T5, and RF5 use a shallower axle thread and will only accept wheels with thinner center hubs. To run standard Baja-style wheels on these models, different wheel hubs must be installed.
Direct installation requires no modification when used on compatible Rofun platforms (360, 360A, 360C, 450, 450AG, 5B, 5T, 5SC, LT, WLT, BLT, Q360). As a result, setup remains quick and repeatable.
Materials and Performance Notes – Rovan Street Tires
Rovan Street Tires use a reinforced rubber compound designed for stable traction and controlled wear on hard surfaces. In addition, the tread layout helps maintain predictable grip while resisting uneven wear patterns. As a result, the tires deliver consistent response for street driving and hard-pack use on 1/5 scale platforms.
Maintenance and Run Prep
Inspect tires for cuts, check bead seating, and verify wheel hardware torque before each run. In addition, remove small debris from the tread after driving. Therefore, the tires maintain stable rotation and consistent handling over time.
