I use Panther slicks on my Firestorm drag truck. Rubber or Foam being best depends on the surface you are gonna be running on.

+1 on Panther slicks.  I have run countless tires on my Jatos and I like those best.  You can get them in soft or clay versions.  I recommend the clays as the softs are too soft and burn up fast.

Yea the Clay burners are what i use on Traxxas Tracer wheels. Also want to use the stiff foams. You can double them. But i just use 1 set, and tape the tires with about 2 layers of duct tape. I get very little ballooning.

if you use any kind of foam tire. be sure the right dirt guard is on else dust will get in the engine clutch.
