.Also, don't store them in your car on a hot day.
Know where I store my Lipo's? In a a lipo sack inside of a 50 Cal Ammo. Can.
I'm not even playing with these things...
I originally thought the hole punching idea in the tires was crazy, but when I ran in some very sandy dirt once, I noticed that the dirt would collect on the inside of the wheel. Since they were dished wheels, the sand had nowhere to go. If I had holes on the inside of the wheels, the sand would have made its way into the tire with no way of getting it out. With the holes in the tire, I don't have to worry about this as. Also, the 1/8" hole that is recommended by others on the board is so small that it doesn't compromise the integrity of the tire.
If I hold the car in the air and go WOT (thus making the tires balloon), I can hear the air escaping the ballooned tires when I get off the gas.
Ok ok. I think I'm getting you here Billy. Make a couple of small holes in the Rim itself (through what would be considered the hub cap) so it allows debris (sand / dirt) to exit the inside of the wheels when beginning to accumulate.
Then, punch a 1/8" hole in the tire (where Im not exactly sure) for air release to bring down balloning quickly. ------> regarding this: won't debris in turn enter the tires? I can't imagine sand and dirt trapped inside the tire camping out with the foams is good for business
