No plans at the moment.

Any plans to include the dirt tech foam with the 1/10 scale tires?
Yes, but no ETA. Pin/knob tires will continue to use white foam.

Ok I have a problem I've used tit turnbuckles on all my cars ..I built a new 44.3 and put on track yesterday ,the 2nd lap jumped a crossover never crashed landed smooth and a rear turnbuckle snapped right at threads like a flaw or something ..had put a stock one back,in for rest of day.will jconcepts sell just one or warranty one,,I would understand if I crashed or something or landed funny...
Contact JConcepts directly.

how do the B5 and tlr22 rear 60mm wheels differ. Different offset or just a thicker wheel hub for the longer 22 axles?

Can someone point me in the direction of what tires to use on wheels I was sent that don't have a bead on them?

They are the newer 60mm or 2.4" wheels, AKA started it with the EVO line, Pro-line has the VTR and now JConcepts has the 60mm. Just need to make sure you order the appropriate tires.

The offset and wheel hub thickness is the same; the only difference is the outer face/dish for aesthetic purposes.

Paul, quit it with this customer support and get back to whipping those poor souls at the tire machine.

I would like to report that I glued up some Smoothies with last Friday. After a quick scuffing I slapped them on and was right on regular lap time from the get go even with the 30 degree temperature drop we experienced. Just need to make some different adjustments for my driving style and these things are really going to fly. Thanks JConcepts Team!

ps.. hurry up with smoothies and the 60mm wheels. I believe we were sold out of everything by friday night.

Can you run 60mm inserts in 2.2 tires/rims? Made a mistake on my JC order. New to this 1/10th tire/insert stuff...

I'm using LW Lubricating. They have been watering the track ever since that night so I've stayed with the dirtwebs. I have some barcodes if the track dries out again. The dirtwebs are hooked up when the track is wet. Outdoor track with a clay dirt surface. I'm carrying the front tires down the front straight with a MM rb6.

We have never tried it, but I have seen some racers saying that they have tried it. It has a lot of air-gap and makes everything feel very soft, not sure how it will handle though.

Paul, I assume the proline VTR and AKA Avo tires will work on the 60mm wheels without issue? I am just hoping that AKA, JC, AE and Proline are all using a standard for these new wheels. I ordered some of the new JC 60mm wheels, but I am unsure if I will run the new smoothies or not.
