Hi I just purchased some 4.50 comp cut lil novas soft front medium rear for my standard pitbull rock beasts. My rig is a bom that's about 8lbs. Can I use these same foams for a set of proline tsl NON xl? Can I just buy the inner since I read on your website they use the same outter?

Trx4 bronco 9llb used for crawling
Proline 1.9 TSL swamper Predator 120mm o/d

I’ve never brought foams before and I haven’t a clue which one. The stock foams are a little soft for my liking.

Did you try the calculator at all? Do you have any feedback?



How about the guide?

It’s the sizing I’m getting confused with cause the tires are 4.75 but when I’ve read some reviews people are using 4.5 size foams. Sorry to Be long winded.

I appreciate your feedback.
What do YOU need the calculator to tell YOU so YOU will feel confident to order?


With 11 years and counting in business, there is PLENTY of information about our product lines from other customers.
Why do I need to speak on the product line when customers do it so much better?
And you prove my point, that people don't truly care about the designers thoughts or recommendation, they ultimately do what they want or what their friend told them to buy. Hence the reason why Crawler Innovations has nearly 200 different foam offerings.


You may not like my blunt expression, but life is short and time is precious.
If I take 25 minutes to answer every customer with parental type care, I will no longer be productive.


None of this is personal and I hope you take no offense.
Have a great day, and thank you for the opportunity to dialogue.

Thank you for your interest in CI products.
Hey man, sorry to bring this back up.
I went to a Hobbytown USA that had an indoor crawler course and found pretty quickly the limitations of the factory Canyon tires and picked up a set of the Proline Hyrax in G8 compound.

They look to be a little taller so I was thinking I should up to the 4.75 + the tuning discs. Do you agree or have other suggestions?

RTR weight?
Intended usage?
Again, this comes down to the users personal preference and how they want their tire to feel and perform.

Did the calculator work for you? I have been informed by a few people where it did not work on the device they were viewing/using it on. And you're not a bother. Thank you for your business.

Yeah, I'm using a desktop PC in Chrome and it worked for me fine.

So cut to the chase, Capra is close to stock with a little weight up front.
Got net Rock Beast XL and the stock foams seem rock hard.
Can someone suggest a better foam that will work with the XLs?

Thank You.

Depending on RTR weight and intended usage, the average stock crawler would use CWR-2024 front and CWR-2025 rear. 4.50" Lil Novas

Good Evening,

I've been running the same set of 4.25 dual stages in my tires for two years. The outer foams are finally feeling tired. Is it possible to buy replacement outers (firm/med)? Or would I need to buy a new set of 4.25s?

Thank you.

Yes, the outer foams are available individually.
