They are a great tire. Just kind of short. I ran them quite a bit and found them to be a little soft. I kept going back to White Rovers with Proline 2 stage foam though. Seems to work the best for me and my driving style.


P.S. HAHAHAHAHA Lloyd and Curtis I beat you to one.

the tires i have now are rock lizards with marbles in them no foam and they kinda of stink can't go places or get grip

Yea they are about the worst tire you can get. Buy some White dot Rovers and experiment with foams. You will be MUCH happier. Also mess with different weights in your rims. I never liked the BB's or marbles much. slowngreen can help you out more with the correct foam selection. I am guessing your running a AX-10?

I put on the rover white dots and MAN what a difference. simply amazing tires.

The stock foams are pretty much garbage by them selves, but the Panther F400 foams are a great replacement, also try about 6oz of lead stick on weights wrapped around the front wheels its self, if you can still get them where you live, then mount the tire and foam onto the wheels, leave the back wheels alone with no weights, this will give your rig a forward weight bias and help keep the front end down on vertical climbs. It will also make it easier to get the back wheels to hop up over ledges and stuff.
