****This new plate set is slightly oversized from the nominal numbers.
Expect them to be about 0.1mm larger than the nominal molded number.
This makes this a larger plate set for those that don't want to true
their tires at all. Just start with LP Mounted tires and the largest
plate and adjust from there!****
Designed to
make your life easier. These plates lock into your favorite Reflex
Racing Speed Dish wheels for an increased wheel lip diameter. Having a
larger diameter lip on the wheel leads to a smaller side wall aspect
ratio on your tire, which very effectively reduces traction roll and
steering response on your car.
These plates
are optimized to be used with "Low Profile" style front tires, which
when mounted measure around 23.2mm on our wheels. The plate set comes
with 4 different sizes: 22.40, 22.60, 22.80 and 23.00mm.
How to use:
1.
Start with a 23.1mm Diameter Mounted front tire on a speed dish wheel.
(We recommend having glued the tire to the wheel, but you no longer
have to add superglue to the sidewall.)
2. Install the 23.00mm plate by pressing the 4 prongs into 4 of the 8 slots on the wheel. Make sure it seats all the way.
3. DRIVE!!!
It
will still take a few laps or maybe half a run to break in your tires,
depending on whether you trued or not, but once they do, the car should
drive with really good balance. When you notice the steering start
dropping off, or if you simply need more steering, go to the next
smaller plate. Rinse and repeat.
