Correct foam width for CF MT tires?
#26
I vented on the center of the tread in 2 spots, I may try the sidewall in the future. Sounds like a good idea, although the vented tread seems to work fine. Where in the sidewall do you put the hole exactly? Tread side, or bead side? centered?

Tex, I vented the tread face in 2 spots 180* apart. I'm going to plug the rim vents with silicone and see what happens. I figure what gets in the tread vents will be closest to the exit vents, so it may work out fine. I made a punch out of a small brass tube (about 2mm, about the same as the Proline holes in the rims) that I filed to have a sharp edge. It punched out the holes very nicely.

I vent the tires in 3 spots right in the middle of the thread pattern.

Roc, write this down: that was the last time I will admit you were right!

But you always have something smart to say, it's just usually something smart A$$ed!

I'm glueing right now. I hate glue. It had better turn out right.
