F1 Foam Tyres
What is the most cost effective Foam F1 tyre set that works on carpet?
Open to any ideas. Thanks |
Hey Simon , whenever I race at teesside with my f1 I always used the kit f109 tyres with good results,Paul @ Cleveland models used to stock them, think they are roughly, £15 for a rear pair and £13 for a front set, glued up ready to go
|
I have a brand new set of F109 tyres front and rear from a Kit that I never used I can sell you.
|
AMC carry the F109 tyres and the Xceed carpet F1 tyres.I run Xceed medium rear and the 3 racing fronts.

Link to foams
If you're gonna use the foams in the ad you linked to then buy from Alex at the club as he is doing them cheaper with a club discount.
He had them last Saturday but not sure if anyone used them. |
Don't forget Stockton Modeller (link in signature line). They may have some F1 tyres in stock. Not on web site though. Ask for Adam. Not sure of the make though. 10% discount for club members.

Double pinks go straight onto F103 rims,but need a nats nidger trimming off the edge and trueing.They actually work really well on carpet and get better as they get older/more addi as they soften up.they also work OK on tarmac.Bad luck with AMC,he can be a bit slow at times,but he's not usually that bad.
|
thanks for heads up on the double pinks i have no doubt AMC are fine guys we maybe just slipped through the net

Also after talking with Kamtech the schumacher donuts should go straight on the front rims (unmounted they are 30mm wide) |

tyres work in a similar way,but are a tad larger diameter,but wear rate is quite high on tarmac with them. |
