Default Inserts

Hi all,
I am after information on inserts, the question being what difference do inserts make to the dandling of the car:

Soft
Medium
Hard

and relevance they have to astro and grass?

On a similar vain does any one know where to get foam tyres for in door off road?

thanks for you help

Default Indoor tyre

PS

If foams aren't suitable for indoor then what is? (no spikes)

Cheers

I race a 2wd drive indoors on carpet and use yellow Schumacher mini pins on the front and rear or yellow cut staggers on the front, I generally trim off the outer rows of pins with the dremel or scissors.

Try this by a guy called Elvo http://users.telenet.be/elvo/ great website with some fantastic mind blowing insight into car performance page 14 in the tyre section specifically deals with inserts but it's worth reading the whole section
