This soon will change as proline and JConcepts are producing softer closed cells. I run a tiny hole on the outside of the tire and a standard 4-40 size hole on the inner. Just don't dunk the tires in the bucket. Ideally, using a bucket with a brush glued to the bottom and filling the bucket to just under the bristles of the brush works great for 1/10 scale tires.
