Yes, it will fit the RC10F6. Just build it in to my car, ready for some testing this week

So looks like new style tires for F1 are getting closer. Testing video up. Since the group I'm racing with linked to them. Think I see what's coming.

These tires look very promising with lower profile(less rubber), and probably less weight too. I am hoping these tires can get down to 30grams(rears) or less , and I hope they also make them to fit the sakura fgx (rears).... Good job Volante....

The pits do not have a large sidewall. The rim is just covered by rubber.

Correct, but the volante's sidewall is much smaller, reducing tire weight/flex ,etc... It will probably corner better too...

There is no way to tell that without the actual rim size. I haven't seen that listed anywhere.

If the volante sidewalls are stiffer than the pits regardless of size it'll be better. Hopefully not have to glue sidewalls for high grip.

I have tried the WRC P-One F1 tires. They are low profile also on a larger rim. The tire is extremely stable and would work well on a high bite track I think, but they did not produce enough steering on a medium bite asphalt track.

It does not need to be listed anywhere. It is obvious from the pictures....

Have you ever glued a pit tire onto a rim?

Well, until we get them in our sweaty palms, we won't have any dimensions. I will say that the masses won't go for them unless the wheel and tire package looks like a current/recent F1 car.
