Default tire foams

Hey guys I've been running my wraith with PL tsl sx tires and I love them but I really don't like the stock foams very much there to soft close to the wheel and allow the tire to fold over really bad. I was wondering what foams you guys would suggest?? My wraith is about 7 1/2 lbs and I do a good amount of crawling and bashing so I must upgrade the foams especially for ripping threw trails. Any advice is very much appreciated and thanks for the help

Crawler innovations has two stage foams but I have never ran them. Everybody seems to like them! I just run the pro line memory foams in my chisels and Baja claws and they seem to work good for me!

I have the CI foams in my Wraith and they work great. You'll either want medium or firm outers. My Wraith weighs 9.5lbs and u got the mediums, but that's all he had. I should have went with the firms. I bet at 7.5 you could get away with mediums all around, or firm fronts and medium rears.

I don't think you can place an order over the phone. Atleast I couldn't. But you can get some good advice from him before you place your order.

Yea. I just got them. I went medium front, firm in the rear and they seem really well. Send Eddy (Nova's Ark) a pm and he is more than willing to give you advice.

i am running the two stage ci foams and have had no issues, tire still folds over and gets good traction. and apparently they are water proof.
