Default Tyres

Hi guys. I知 looking for new tyres for my wraith spawn and I知 torn between the Pro-Line super swamper xl and the Pitbull rock beast II. There seem to be some different versions of the rock beast so not sure which I need. I mainly crawl so looking for something nice and soft to deform to the shape of the terrain but not so soft they fold over sideways. Also, which crawler innovations foams do you recommend as I知 new to all this and don稚 want to buy something that痴 not suitable for my needs

Thanks

The foams should be dictated by the tires you choose as some are larger than others.
What sort of terrain are you crawling in, rock, mud, both, gravel etc will help provide some options

Pick whichever one you like the looks of more because they'll both perform well. For the Pitbull tires there is Komp compound which is soft, then Alien which is super soft (better for colder weather), however Alien does cost more. For foams a starting point would be the 5.5" Crawler Innovations Double Deuce, soft outers up front and medium outers in the rear.

I drive a variety of terrains. Rock, sand, stones, grass. I like the look of them both but was confused by foams so I’ll go on the advice I’ve been given. Thanks guys

Proline Super Swampers with the ProLine foams. No need to spend the extra money on Pitbull tires. Proline Hyrax are also another great tire.

I have both of these setup's, both on SSD wheels and they're both great.
Swampers are on the Bomber and Hyrax on my son's Wraith.
It's easier for me to get the Proline foams in the UK locally as CI looks to be import only
