Mounting New Tires
Hello Everyone
I got my revo the other day and have decided on some new tires and rims. I purchased panther switch 2.0 and pro-line wide offset max velocity rims for it. I did do a search for mounting tires on here but had a question about the foam insert for the tires? I found that most talked about shaveing some of the edges off the foam but I have been able to mount mine without doing so (not glued yet though) and seem to fit realy nice. Id like some of the knowledge from everyone here about not cutting the foam.
Thank You
Chris

RE: Mounting New Tires
Thank You
I wondered about the roundness of the tires but they look good around the edges but I have done some more work on them before I do any glueing and have found the center of the rubber to be a little softer like mabe the foam is pushed down and not in good contact with it so mabe I should do some trimming. I just want to make sure I do this right hate to ruin a good set of tires.
Thank You Again
