My opinion is that until you run them and get the dried out foam off they will be slippery.

Not sure....Its kinda funny though when you get a picture of drivers bringing arm loads of tires in with them in the morning wrapped in cerran wrap and when they spray them with alcohol the rags come off black. Anyone ever cleaned a freshly trued tire with some motor spray or alcohol and a rag? They come off clean..... Some guys are still doping it seems but its ok as long as they get sprayed with alcohol before they run! LOL
