Senesi Motorsport 1:8 GT Sweep Tyre Roller

Senesi Motorsport, the brand of 2024 EFRA 1:8 GT European Champion Natanaele Senesi, has released this 1:8 GT Sweep Tyre Roller. Having just been announced as the Italian distributor for the Korean manufacturer’s Sweep tyre range, Senesi Motorsport designed this tool to work with Sweep’s very popular 1:8 GT tyres, since the diameter of the roller matches perfectly the inside diameter of the Sweep. Used to prepare and condition the tyres for maximum performance on the track, by applying consistent pressure, the roller smooths and flattens the tyre surface, ensuring a more even grip and reducing irregularities. This process enhances handling and tyre life making it a must-have for serious competitors. When using new tyres, excess tire glue can sometimes form uneven spots, affecting the tyre’s overall performance and by rolling them with the tyre roller you can “break” the glue and ensure a uniform tyre surface. The Tyre Roller also comes with a handy carbon-fibre stick that can be inserted into the roller to make this whole process easier.
