Capricorn 1/10 and 1/8 Foam tyres
Dear all could anyone share some feedback on Cap Tires.
I also heard that they are made by Matrix and that normally a 35 shore will be equivilant to a 32 of other brands. Could someone confirm and share their experience. Thanks |

It's very hard to measure shore accurately, it really depends on how fresh the tires are and what kind of meter you are using. Sometimes even the rim plays a part in the measurement.
As far as I know the shore is pretty close to other brands, there are only a few foam manufacturers so there can't be too much difference between brands. ;) |

The differance between a ennetti carbon tire and a capricorn carbon tire is 5 grammsin weight. The CAp tir is heavier, so maybe because the tire has more natural rubber in it?? i don`t know really. The rims are the same weight.
Does anyone know why?:confused: |
FI STYLE RIMS
CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT TRACK CONDITIONS THEY FOUND WOULD SUIT THE F1 RIMS:confused: RACING ON A MED/ HIGH GRIP TRACK, AND ALSO WHAT MATERIAL WOULD YOU USE ON THESE TRACK CONDITIONS, CARBON RIMS OR LIGHT RIMS. I KNOW THE LIGHT RIM ALLOW THE CAR TO ACCELERATE FASTER BUT WANT TO KNOW WHICH ONE WOULD GIVE YOU MORE GRIP AT CORNER SPEED:D

FYI...CAP tires are lighter. Weighed them trued and un-trued same size split 59/61 over the weekend at the Cow Patty Classic and each Ennetti Carbon was about 4-5 grams heavier
I looked again why yours are differant, and i measured again right out off the box and the CAP tire measure width 31,1 height 65,7mm weight 6 gramm inside rim 46,8 Ennetti tire width 30,6 height 65,0 weight 4 gramm inside rim 46,9 both Carbon rims. Could be i got an old batch, will see when the new order arrives. So it is marginal, it seems i got it wrong first, but the wider tire should be heavier. The tires are a little trued. Lookes like the CAP tires have more foamwidth and height right out of the box.:D be aware off rules though regarding tolerance in tire width.;) |
