What is a good ride height for asphalt?
Miles, So Dialed's RC setup AI
For a TLR 22S Dirt Late Model, start at 15 mm front and 21 mm rear. That is a general 1/10 late-model baseline listed for all track types, not an asphalt-specific setting for this exact car.
Measure on a flat surface with your race tires and battery installed. The 22S’s adjustment ranges include 8–20 mm front and 15–25 mm rear. Lower ride height can reduce chassis roll, but too low may let the chassis bottom out.
If it bottoms or scrapes on the asphalt, raise the end that is contacting the track a little. If it stays clear but rolls more than you want, try lowering ride height in small steps, one end at a time.
