Axial Wraith 2.2, testing hair bun donut "foams" at Trooper's Hill 

Thanks. I'm lucky to have some decent trails within 30 mins drive but this spot withing walking distance so is my local testing ground. I find 100mm perfect for 120mm 1.9's and 110mm for 2.2's

Yep. They've also had a water test and no problems. I can buy them from local discount/£1 shops for......£1 each. 120mm ones would be a better fit for the 2.2's as I would need the EPP foam packer that's in there now

Thanks. I'm also running them in the wheels on my RST Creep ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Zi4iuiD0ijU.html

I was pleased with the performance. I deliberately tried to run it slowly over the terrain as the Wraith is a bit more of a point and gas it model. There were only a few times that I needed to open the taps :-)

It's my second favourite rig after the SCX10 II

B&M Bargains for 80-100mm and Poundstretchers for 110mm it it depends which country you are in. Worth a looking the hair product aisle in your local Chemists etc. Here's a mates comparison test against Pro-Line Dual Stage foams ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0PjHkrXueQs.html

Thanks for the compliment

Thanks Dan. Really happy at how they performed. They are not too soft so ok when side running. Maybe it's too early to say how they hold up but I'll do more testing and source some to try them in my 1.9 beadlocks

You have too choices. You can either pack the tyres out with a larger size or add an inner ring of closed cell EPP packing foam. Easy enough to cut using two sharpened food/drink cans. Here's a mates video where he went for the larger size to fill the tyres on his heavy rig ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yMwhosy6Qyo.html

@@heady2008 cool thanks

The hair bun donuts were actually softer than single stage foams that were installed before. At 99p each they were worth a try and they have the benefit of not rotting away when immersed in water. I now use them in all my crawlers

But at £4 for four and no water rot it's a bit of a no brainer

@@heady2008 I spent like 40Euro on Crazy Crawler closed cells .... then 6Euro on the hair donuts. They are just waaay better :D

@@elbutchos Closed cell foam tends to be too firm unless the rig is heavy. Mine are holding up well so far

@@heady2008 well I'm at 5.2kg now ... and didn't like how the closed cells behaved :(
