Hi all,
Iwas thinking of changing the stock foams of my Proline Super Swamper XL 2.2".

What can I fit in ? I've read that CI Deuce's Wild 2.2 tall CRI-3002 could fit but didn't find any feedback.
any ideas ?
thanks

CC recommended me the Double Duece 5.5's
They work great. Nice sidewall, with the flex expected so the tire conforms to objects.

I also contacted CI, and they recommended me the Deuce's Wild 2.2 tall CRI-3002, what I bought : desappointed :twisted:

on the OD the top of the foam ribs are just in contact, but for the side wall it's an other story ! :cry:, with 1.5" wheel width, there is some play between the foam and the rubber.
Do you think a can fit 1" glued wheels on these tires or add a foam discs on each side ?
thanks

Xl swampers,1" glue on CI wheels & DW tall foams will mount just fine! I removed the center ribs in the front left rear stock.

If ya want DD foams i would go with 6.0 med up front & 6.0 firm in rear if not med all around! IMO
