Technical Performance
The Carisma GT24i20 front wheel and tyre set represents meticulous engineering optimised for 1/24 scale rally racing performance. The wheels themselves are manufactured to tight tolerances to ensure perfect balance and consistency, critical for high-speed corner carving where even minor weight imbalances can affect handling. The PR-compound tyres feature a tread pattern specifically designed for rally applications, delivering progressive grip buildup and predictable cornering behaviour across a wide range of track surfaces and ambient temperatures. The tyre sidewalls are engineered to provide appropriate flex characteristics for a 1/24 scale machine, allowing the suspension to work effectively whilst maintaining responsive steering inputs. These front tyres are particularly important for rally racing, as they directly influence braking performance, turn-in response and mid-corner grip — the three most critical elements of competitive rally racing. The combination of quality rubber compound, precision moulding and factory quality control means these tyres will maintain consistent performance throughout their service life, whether you're running practice sessions or competitive rally events. Carisma's engineering commitment is evident in every detail, from the consistent sidewall thickness to the carefully calculated tread depth that optimises performance during the critical acceleration and deceleration phases of rally racing.
