Creers mates,
Can some one please tell me how they rate? I need to no from hard to soft. I'm looking for some mini pins or mini spikes 4WD fronts to mate up with the losi ifmar pins. I like hard tyre up front and a bit softer tyre in the rear. Thanks for any help.
Cheers,
Nate
Also, what is the differance between the mini pin and the mini spike?
I see your UK cars and most of the time I see you run tyres that look like the losi ifmar pins. Since losi stopped making the ifmar pin for the 4WD front I need something that will be close to them as posable.............:)

Schumacher are green, yellow and blue. green is an odd sort of rubber, we use it on wet tracks but it works alright on dirt, wears quickly though.
yellow and blue are similar rubber but blue is harder.
I think you might be better off looking at BALLISTIC BUGGY mini pin tyres, rather than schumacher. maybe green or blue compounds if you want something harder.

no worries,
The race place stock them I beleive http://www.theraceplace.co.uk (http://www.theraceplace.co.uk/), you might have to ask them about other compounds / most suitable for you, I think from soft to hard they go pink / green / blue - not sure if there are other colours in there.

The Schumacher mini pin has a very similar carcuss to the Losi Ifmar. If i remember, the rear's are very similar.
Jimmy has left out silver and Pink - assuming they are both still made.
Silver is as probably the closest to Losi silver, Pink's are very very soft, but a synthetic conposition, wouldn't go with Losi's i don't think.

I went with the Ballistic Buggy mimi pins in green.
I'll give those a go and maybe try the Schumacher mini pins later.
Thanks though Mattw.
