| Sport Foams
For the longest time now it looked like all 4 of my tires were flat. Today I broke them down and the foams were in pieces. They are black. Is it normal for these foams to break down so easily? I put the tires on a set of Redcat Gen 7 PRO wheels and foams and they turned out great...……...Just wondering if anyone else had these foams go bad so soon.

Did you run them wet? Mine last a long time never had any shred. Dual stage foams are the way to go though. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |

What VoodooBrew said...a few times fully saturated (creeks are my favorite crawls) and the stock foams disintegrate.

First thing I do is seal the holes in rims. When I upgraded my wheels I kept the excellent tires and bought proline dual stage foams 1.9xl. Transformed side hilling and general grip.

I was surprised when I took the Redcat Gen 7 Pros apart and found the foams in good shape beings it was my first truck and did a lot of dirty wheeling with it.

This has all been discussed complete with pictures. Spend some time reading through the wheel and tire section.
