I've only come across them within the last 12 months and they certainly save the time and effort (yes, I'm lazy) of gluing the ends of the Tamiya inserts together.

No offence taken. Just replace the word ideal with; a very suitable alternative

To be honest though they are both of a very similar firmness and a mere mortal like myself is very hard pushed to notice a difference on track.
For me they are much more user friendly and eliminate the inconsistencies of the Tamiya insert, which as we know has a mind of it's own if not fitted correctly.
Thanks for the heads up. The foam insert the tires come with is much too soft. Just asking for traction rolling problems with those. I'll give these a try with the next set. Yep, I'm lazy also.
