| Need foams advice for KLR gold.
So I tried running the Ottsix foams in Toyzuki SCX.2. This weekend I learned the foams are way to stiff. A few friends recommend sanding the ribs off the inside of the tires. This is something I've never had to do with any tire before. Is there a correct foam setup I can use? I was thinking CI dual stage softs? Anyone with a lighter SCX running KLRs have advice?

CI makes foams for them no problem. I run soft in the front and medium in the rear and yes 2 stage for sure. Get the comp cut inner and you will be very happy with your performance.

No need to modify the tires. Just CI foams as suggested by Billy D in the 4.25 size

I liked the voodoo foams the best in the KLRs when I ran them. But the 4.25 comp cut CI foams will also work. |

The best foams for the KLR are found in other tires...

How heavy is your truck? The pic above doesn't really show a whole lot. I'd be more interested in what the tire looked like from the other side or the lower tires. The KLR foams I have are significantly softer than the 4.25 CI foams I had. | |
