Losi Truggy

The losi XTT tires have open-cell foam.
On the balancing comment, its most likely a combination of tire carcass and foam, but I know for sure that molded foam is a lot more inconsistant foam to foam than open-cell, far heavier as well. The only upside would be the stiffness, that could be advantageous on high bite tracks, as well as longevity, the molded do last longer. (But if the tire is wasted in 30-60 minutes of run time, do you really need the foam to last longer?)

Thank's for the reply, Pro. I got a buddy who's getting a 8t but he's a newbie and on a tight budget. i was curious how the 3 port's did,since he's watching every penny. Maybe a go tech 5 port?
