RE: Foam Inserts?
Really depends on what kind of traction you want to get, and if you do a lot of jumping the inserts hinder the cushion of the tire................thats why there is usually a pin hole in most rims to let the air out and cushion the landing[:@]

I'm not your dude dud and you can get your facts right, your not even worth the argument[>:]
if you had a brain you would be dangerous[:-]
Dude Get your facts straight before you post. Foams absorb shock from jumps and bumps and keep the tire from squishing down to the rim and also to build up the side wall of the tire so when in a turn the tire dose not want to lean on and roll on the wall of the tire. they also help with handling cuz they help stop body roll

I pretty much agree! And if you did not have the holes the vehicle would bounce too much and make handling worse. All so the holes are to let any water and dirt get out. I do not have holes in the wheels of most of mine but in the tires as this way centrifugal force slings the dirt and water out. Dirt really puts a hurting on the foams. Some put holes in both the wheel and tire.

This is why they make foam is different hardness!
I do not know about stadium trucks as I only race buggies but I have never seen any one race with out some sort of foam insert. [8D]

You can't really run these things without foams. This guy talks like he knows everything but I haven't seen him make a logical suggestion yet.
