So I run through a set of tires every practice day... And even though that's only like $18 out of my pocket (thanks lhs) I would like to find a practice tire.
We run barcodes and pressure point at the track, I'm not too worried about loosing a bit of traction if I could find a decent tire that last a bit longer haha

diff. issue
called horizon on the diff rub... they have never heard of this?????? cover up..? they do have a diff case mold problem... what fixed mine was pre drill 1st 1/2 of the diff case.. so the bolts dont fight them selves in.... when this happens it expands the plastic near that kinda poor diff ring distorts the case and rub... mine went from unusable to 95% ok...... 480$ kit

Ethier the sway bar is not free or the shock oil is to stiff in the rear. Change tires first.

Maybe its a hardware problem and not a mold problem ?
I used the HPI Z449 screws (same set of screws for 3 years and not one has stripped after many fluid changes) and didn't have any problems with rubbing and the screws went in with no problems .

You are correct, there is often a smidgen of rebound regardless, so what you are experiencing is ok.
Cover up? Seriously...lol. I have built many of these trucks... cant say that I have ever expereinced my diff case rubbing any part of the gear inside. As long as the bearings are seated properly ont he diff case and the diff screws are tight and the screws not going into the diff case are not over tightenend, all have always been A-OK. If there was an issue, I would fix it. I will look into it though just in case.

Yea last year when i got the 1.0 it was missing some plastic Rear hub spacers so i called up Horizon if i remember the Customer service. Or some other dept a couple of times it was ethier i couldnt get though or i leave a message and never get called backed. So i said screw it and just bought the Rear hubs with the spacers.
As for the issue your having i cant say many have that issue look every Manf kit is going to have some issues when there made overseas.
TC: I have the HPI screws i did buy them from Stormer there is some online stores that where out of stock or did not sell them.
