#deuceswildfoams for "Fling King" Mega truck tires by JConcepts

Crawler Innovations was the first to combine closed cell and open cell foam into one package with our Double Deuce and Lil’ Nova product lines. After we'd perfected those systems, we turned our attention towards the faster paced rock racer, heavy scalers, and basher genres. The Deuce's Wild Foam line was created. Using only the firm inner material, while focusing on the machined size and shape of the foam.

CWR-3020 is designed for use in the JConcepts brand, "Fling King", 2.6" rim Mega Truck Racing tire with the JConcepts "Dragon" 2.6" rim/wheel. These foams will fit many other brands of tires and rims, as long as they are similiar in height and width.

These foams are much firmer than anything available on the market. They do not fold over under load whether it's high speed, heavy weight, or simply turning. These foams rely on a small air gap between the foam and tire. This loose area allows for the tire to obtain traction, while the foam supports the tire.

Approximate size: 4.875" Height x 1.750" Width (Remember that foam goes inside the tire and one must subtract lug and carcass thickness, plus any reinforcing from the overall tire height.)

Re: #deuceswildfoams for "Fling King" Mega truck tires by JConcepts

I'm not a fan of plastic wheel hexes. Hence the reason why CI offers the 6 Bolt Wheels for use with the aluminum Vanquish Products SLW hub. Many other quality companies have recognized the VP SLW bolt pattern benchmark, showing honor and including it in their own wheel designs. Unfortunately JConcepts isn't one of them and the plastic hexes included with the all the 2.6" wheels are pathetically weak. I choose to modify my 2.6" wheel hub bolt holes by using a dremel with small carbide bit to elongate the holes. I then used a carbon fiber SLW ring on the outside of the wheel. I'm using older VP hubs from the Dirty Harry wheel line they produced. The hub bolts pass through the carbon fiber ring, the rim, and into the hub. This sandwiches the rim between the carbon fiber ring and the aluminum hub. Time will tell how strong this it. On to the pictures;
