stiffer sidewalls?

[Koldham]

i have a set of exceed mad torque tires. i ditched the stock foam and cut the lugs so they work very well. the tires are super soft and grip good so i dont wanna change the foam to much, i just need to stiffen the sidewalls a bit. the tires lean a bit to much on the sideways stuff. New tires are NOT an option. any tips and tricks would be very appreciated

you could put something like black RTV sealant for automotive gaskets on the inside of the side walls maybe? or use it to glue some rubber to the inside

Use a set of sidewalls and ca them to the inside.

Crawler Inovations makes foam "tuning disks" that fit inside the tire and stiffen the sidewalls a little. I've never used them but they're cheap, or you could make your own with a thin sheet of foam from the hobby or craft store.

i would have to make my own because my rim alone is bigger that that piece of foam but that is a good idea. i coyld make them out of the stiff stock foam that i got left
