They come with the foam. Since I can't get them through my LHS I don't know what the street price actually is but I'm guessing it's pretty close to the list price on the sweep site at $19 a pair. So at the worlds they are paying 28 bucks for $40 worth of tires. Seems fairly reasonable to me.

if you're going to the worlds, you have a budget for tires. The cost is negligible in the big picture.

Ok, enough about the tires, ya they look like Bar Codes and they're expensive, but who cares everyone has to run them and its in the budget - this is the Worlds!

My predictions are based on drivers from the 2013 Worlds, as that surface is more similar to this one they will run:

2WD
1st Lee Martin - always fast on multiple surfaces and long over due?
2nd Ryan Maifeld - do I really need to justify this?
3rd Ryan Cavalieri - He's always fast and in the mix
Others to watch:
Neil Cragg
Ty Tessmann
Jared Tebo


4WD
1st Bruno Coelho - 4wd is his discipline until someone else can take it from him.
2nd Naoto Matsukura - Did well in Chico, unfinished business?
3rd Ryan Cavalieri - Cant keep a 2 time Worlds champ down.
Others to watch:
Ty Tessmann
Ryan Maifeld
David Ronnefawlk
Davide Ongaro

Well, it 's a heavily sugar'd track. Hope those tires aren't too expensive after all....

If there's really that much sugar then slicks/semislicks might work better anyway.
