FG-ST tire foam inserts, same as the MT??
Anyone know if the insert used in the ST is the same as the MT?
I am trying to order a set of ST wheels and tires to put on my sons Marder, but the only inserts I can find are for the MT.
Are those supposed to fit in the ST as well?? They seem like they would be pretty big for the ST tire.

I bought those foams for my ST tires, and they are huge. I think FG just marks the bags with different numbers, but uses the same foams for both the MT and ST tires. I still haven't got to put them on my Baja yet, maybe next week.

I contacted a friend who deals in FG parts, he stated exactly what you did USABaja5B, they are in fact the same size.

I used the panther monster truck foams. They are a little tight to get one but once they are on they are great for the stadium tires and rims. There is a little room inside the tire but there is not bounce to them. The fg st foams should be cut down a little before mounting them.

ST and MT foams are NOT the same size. Same inside and outside diameter but the width is less on the ST's by about an inch.
