Nice looking tires and rims,I got the 35 shore,nice and sticky foam,made in United kingdom...great price too
THIS TIRE DOES NOT FIT A 4 TEC 2.0 VXL. THE OFFSET IS TO MUCH & WILL RUB, TRIED A LARGER HEX HUB AND IT DID NOT RUB, BUT U COULD NOT PUT THE NUT ON TO HOLD TIRE ON.... WISH I COULD FIND FOAM TIRES THAT ARE DIRECT REPLACEMENT FOR OEM TIRES... THE TIRE LOOKS GREAT, BUT DID NOT WORK FOR MY APPLICATION....
Can't say I'd recommend them for dusty asphalt, but on a grippy surface, then not too bad. Running 35sh rears and 40sh fronts, and my 4tec 2.0 pushes through the turns. Need to lower the front shore a little bit or go 35sh all around. Speaking of using them on a 4tec, they will fit just fine. Use the regular rear hubs and add a 1mm or 2mm washer. Works like a charm and the rod ends don't get messed up; the previous owner of this 4tec didn't hear about washers, so his tires had a notch cut into the foams and rod ends. Ordered another set to try out some tuning options.
They are great tires. Awesome traction on my 2wd slash derby car. I buy a lot these tires and are a favorite in my derby series
Not bad Thay look good on the car and the price is fair if they can get more in stock I'd buy them once and awhile my RC car eats them up might try 35 shore or 40shore to 42shore on my RC car are fun though thay seem to have good grip though.
Six reviews, mostly positive, praising the grip, sticky foam, appearance and price of these 30mm Contact sedan rear tires across 35, 40 and 42 shore variants. Reviewers note the tires work well on grippy surfaces but are less suited to dusty asphalt. One verified owner on a 4Tec 2.0 VXL reports fitment problems: the offset caused rubbing, and the nut would not seat on a larger hex hub. Another 4Tec owner says the tires fit with regular rear hubs plus a 1 or 2 mm washer. Stock availability is mentioned as an issue by one reviewer.
