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.
Be aware that enetti as well as the xceed branded ones have a carpet and an asphalt version. Many racers use them with great succes at my local carpet track.
Most run soft rears with hard fronts. I switch from soft to med depending on traction but mostly run hard in front.
Be aware of the different offset from most other makes. Check trackwidth front and rear with your current tires and shim the new ones to the same width!
