Default Got my HB Rovers now need advice on which foams to run

Hi all.

Finally got my pl titus and HB rovers red dot in. Was wondering which foam should I install. Should I use the ones that came with the rovers or the blue ones from the mrc pro roller wheels

Thanks

Also eddie at CI will usually hear you out on what you run. How you run and where you run and help you create a foam that is right for you. He is that kindof class act.

I'm kinda new at this so not really sure what I need for the moment. I'm basically relying on this forum for advice. Hell.... I'm not even sure where I can find a crawl spot in my area. Lol

But I was going thru the ci site and I'm kicking myself in the @$$ right about now. I could have save some $$$ if I would have orders my tires and foam from him. Oh well... From now on, I'll check the vendors b4 buying from somewhere else

Memory foams are good when its hot out. CI foams do work very well. CBoggs, our 2010/2011 1.9 champ suggested stock foam and I agree. The CI soft foams are too soft for my rig.

Right now I have losi blue foam in front and rover stock foam in rear. Just been climbing the couch and its night and day from stock tires. 4oz in front 0oz in rear. Will be trying different combos when the CI's come in but while doing searches... There were so many positive post about them that I just had to try em. They were inexpensive so well see. I am noticing that there is alot of the side giving out with the stock losi foams so im hoping that the CI soft will be better
