Bmain is the place to buy all your tires from. Noone comes close to their prices.

Well in order to meet that volume,he must have to sell more then A-main or Tower or something. Unless he is selling to small shops too besides the normal racer like us.

If I was Homer I would just charge an extra $1-2 for shipping and make the money that way. That way you can offer the product on the site at a cheaper price and people will buy...

OK,
I was wondering which foams I should run in these tires. I was looking at the ofna premolded foams, they any good? Should I run mediums or what?
Let me know,
Joe

heavy......does the pros outweight the cons? what is the pros to having molded foams, consistantcy? reusability?
weight is obviously the cons.....
I would bolt them up with stock foams or the white boa foams. The white boa foams will last the tire life and they are only $9.99 for all 4, that's prolly what I would do.

Hey, I contacted Homer again last night, and he managed to find me 1 more pair of tires. So now I got all four coming to my house! They should be here in the next couple of days. What you guys think about the Ofna 17mm rims with 28mm offset for a Revo? It would give it more of a truggy stance becasue of the width.
Let me know,
Joe

Revo (unless you changed it) has 14mm hexes. And I just put the Revo against the TTR ST1...the Revo is wider track, but the TTR is longer wheelbase (Revo is 2.5 version, not 3.3 extended)

But the 2.5 revo is not that much shorter then the ST-1. I have mine sitting side by side on my table and I would say that if you had a 3.3 chassis. That might even it out. For sure if you had the 3.3 and the adjustable arms.
Wider is not always better tho IMO. Can cause you to get in to trouble with other trucks on the track because your so wide. I still plan to run offset anyway. But it is something I try to remember when the part of the track I am in gets crowded.
