I was going to try mine on Friday, I don't do the sniff test very well but to me natural rubber feels tacky and even a little sticky while the synthetic feels more smooth, and they passed the "feel" test. I'm hopeful, the rims are HUGE compared to the Jaco and TRC stuff. The track had a good quantity of rubber burned into it by three heats of four modified foam tire touring car, so it had big traction for blinky 1/12.
