Rookie....maybe there is no offset on the Orion rim....and that is the problem. I know that some nitro foam tires do not have any offset in the rim. Carpet foam rims all have an extra 2mm offset built in I believe...so that might be the problem. Once you get some real carpet foam tires I bet that you wont have this issue. I have seen 30mm TRC foams fit the rear of the car so there must be something with the Orion rim.
You might be right, then I have to wait untill the Parma and find out...I have mounted nitro 30mm foams for TP racing, but all I can do is mount the shock to the closest #3 position at the lower arm in order to get the clearence.

Thanks.
