AKA SCT Red Inserts - Require pre-mount break-in or Cutting?
I have only used JC and Pro-Line Inserts on my sc5m for the part year and purchased AKA chainlinks with their Red Inserts.
Very firm and fill out the tire too much resulting in poor traction.
Should I have dremeled cross ribs in the inserts or something ?
Anything I can do to soften them up? Have about 5 packs on them.
thanks.

Several of us locally have had good success using a punch to put holes in the insert. We are putting holes all the way around both of the circumferential ribs, at every other support rib. That translates to 20 total holes and a perfect insert. We are doing the same with stadium truck inserts, too.
