Dimensions: Outer diameter 55mm, Inner diameter 30mm, Width 40mm

Fitting Tips for Best Performance

These foams arrive with double-sided tape for mounting, but using tyre glue is advised for a secure, long lasting bond. Proper adhesion keeps the tyre stable during hard cornering and helps maintain predictable handling.

Are these suitable for foam-compatible rims?

Yes, they are intended for rims that accept foam tyres and that match the 30mm inner diameter specification.

How do I store spare foam tyres?

Store them flat in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight to avoid drying out the compound and to preserve shape.

Is sanding recommended to improve grip?

Light sanding can remove a thin skin and slightly increase bite, but sand carefully and test incrementally to avoid removing too much material.
