rover question
 
I just got some rovers and was wondering if I can use my proline memory foam out of my hammer. The hammers are way smaller so any help would be much appreciated. Is the rover foam any good.

I had good luck with the stock Rover foams. Smaller foams will make them too soft though I think.

i also agree stock rover foams work great"thumbsup"

i have had my rovers since they first came out and loved even with the rover foam very soft but not to much just perfect"thumbsup"

I too have great luck with the stock foams...maybe just trim them so there not so wide.

The stock foam works ok, but doesn't fill out the tire because its too short and the lugs fold over and don't get you anywhere I went with a harder Panther standard foam (F-400 I think) and its perfect and I got a lot more hight out of the tire

if you can swing the $25, i would HIGHLY suggest Nova Ark's 5.5 Double Duece foams. they are well made, and so far, they have a nice feel inside of my Rovers, and i haven't even munkeyed around with tuning them yet. they give a nice firmer sidewall, yet provide a nice "squishy" outer tread surface. "thumbsup"

i did have the stock foams in my rovers but they were too soft so i upgraded to proline 2 stage foams, they seem to be working very well for me

The ProLine 2-stage foams work good in a warmer climate, if the temperature changes much, the foams will get harder if it gets cooler. The Crawler Innovations foams work really nice n the rovers also.

The stock foams work really well but are a bit small for the tires.

Stay with the stocker

Maybe throw some tuning disks in front. in rear The Crawler Innovations foams work really

Eddie foams rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i took some of the proline memory foams and sliced them in half. i made a long foam that was half as thick and wrapped it around the stock rover foams. i used some headliner spray glue to hold them together that way my foams are almost 6 inches tall with a memory foam outer. i have used them with 2 sets of rovers and now have them in some sedonas.

the Nove foams are the best I've tried in the Rovers and the Sedonas. good mixed and for me are better than the stock foams - which aren't exactly rubbish mind.

yellowv22 06-25-2010 09:44 PM

thanks for the feed back it looks like I'm ordering some novas on monday"thumbsup"

I found the more you run the Rovers and the Nova foams the better they get. it's a great excuse to get out there and play to :ror:
