I forgot CI made those.
I ordered some more tuning rings with my new foams, and totally forgot about them making the tuning discs.

Bummer. Guess I can shave some more Sedona foams if needed.

Thanks for the info Crawl.
Fingers crossed on the tires arriving today.

For my driving style and the fact that my rig is very light, I haven't found that I need tuning disc's at all.

Right now I am about 4.4 lbs on my AL Fighter rig, which these would go on. Mr XR10 axl'd rig is about 5lbs.
I run .75" width VP wheels on the AL Fighters and a VERY soft foam combo. My plan is to switch to a 1" wheel and tune from there for these.
As soon as they are here, and the rain stops, I'll have some pics and updates.

they're here!

If you reserved tires, they will be shipped on Friday and Saturday.

If you did not reserve your tires and have placed a PREORDER, we will fill those orders in the exact order that we received them. I only have enough EXTRA SOFT left to fill a few orders. I have more coming from the factory but it will be a few weeks before we get them.

There has been quite a bit of confusion as to which compound is the softest.

Gold Dot - Ultra Soft is the softest

followed by

Silver Dot - Extra Soft

and

Blue Dot - Soft

(the bronze dot looked too much like the gold dot so I switched to blue)

I strongly recommend that you use Simple Green to clean your tires. All tires will be cleaned before shipping to remove any mold release or industrial grime that may have been left over from the manufacturing process.

When comping, it's always a good idea to clean your tires between courses...pin tires in particular.

Do not use solvent based cleaners! Their use will GREATLY reduce the life of the tire!

VERY good advice. Simple Green mixed 50/50 with water works great and doesn't leave them too sticky, so they pick up dirt, etc..

If you want them sticky, use it straight up. 100%

Got my tracking number email today, thank you for the quick turn around. Can't wait to get these on the truck and see what they do on the rocks.

Can't wait to see these on your rig. I have been tempted, but I'm sure once I see them in person I will be sold
Later,

This is my favorite pin pattern so far. (for really smooth rock, the original pins seem to work best)
