| Foam set-up for running mashers on mud and water?
hi i just have a set of foams that came with mi 2.2 proline mashers ... i will use normal rings maybe 2.2 revolvers they will be used on my 2.2 truck that i am making with tlt axles and a custom chassis my truck will be much of the time in gravel,mud and water... -so i let the foams stock on the tire -cut the foam on start pathern or any other pathern -run the tires without foam wich way perform better? btw i dont have any other set of 2.2 tires... just the stock tires of the tlt i ask this question because i only have one chance... because when i glue the tires there is no coming back thanks |

Run them without foams, as there will be no chance for the foams to get waterlogged, they will be fine. Last edited by Tanis; 07-27-2007 at 09:45 PM. |

I had a set of mashers for bashing and mudding. I basically just rounded the tire to give me some sidewall traction. Take a pair of scissors and round the corners of the foam. Ran very well for me. I wouldn't recommend star cut foams for this application. |
