Published description
This model is an RC car tire featuring a no-overhang thread pattern designed to facilitate easier printing. It was originally designed for the XRAY M18T.
Practical uses include drifting and recreational RC driving. The author notes that while the tire is designed for fun, it is not intended for competitive racing.
Included parts:
- tirev2.step
- tirev2.stl
Printing and assembly guidance:
This tire is primarily designed for use with foaming filament and has been tested using Siraya AIR TPU. To ensure successful printing, the author recommends enforcing a constant speed across the print by using a volumetric flow rate limit (for example, 3 mm³/s). To avoid friction issues within the PTFE tube, it is advised to feed soft TPU directly to the print head. Users should utilize slicer scaling to achieve their desired dimensions.
