Tamiya F350 Tire Foams?
 
I picked up a F350 and wanted a more street look so I bought the RC4WD 1.7 country road wide tires for my 1.7 rims. So they did not come with foam...what have you guys been using on your rigs? Or do I just not run any foam?

Thanks,
Josh

Hey I use this foam from: http://www.homedepot.com/p/MD-Buildi...1464/202837935 Cut and fit easy.

if it sags too much id use foam. if not doesn't matter to me if there is foam in there or not. I know the ones I have on the F350 dually have really hard foams. makes for a stiff ride.

Got the foam from Home Depot, one last question for you guys. What do you use to mount the tires to aluminum wheels? Do I need to scuff the area that the tire will touch the wheel?

Thanks!
