I'd like to try some foams for my 1/10th offroad Sworkz. It will be for indoor carpet prima GT. What does everybody use? It will be the Schumacher 1/8th Donuts, but which shore front and back? How long will a set last compared to yellow minispikes or minipins?

I've got 37 shore front and rear Colin and they last a long time in comparison to the rubber tyres.

Cheers Dave, do you need to shave the inside ribs on the wheels to let them sit right?

Check the schumacher site, they now do buggy specific foams so no more messing stretching the 1/8 ones over the wheel. :thumbsup:

I cut the inner ribs of my Wheels and they worked fine.
