Do Hair Donuts Really Work? We Put Them To The Test | The RC Dudes 

Haha I had similar looks when buying them 🤣 Fingers crossed they work well on your Capra 🤞🏻

Hahahaha 🤫🤣

Brilliant rent they!

Hope they work well for you 🙂

Still going great. Not a single problem 🙂

Yes that’s a big plus point!

Thank you, yes it’s a lovely spot. No, they’re sealed on my Venture, but vented on the other one. I done it that way so I could see how each would do.

I really can’t remember 🤣 Yes totally! I will be doing an update video as soon as lockdown restrictions allow me to travel more than 5 miles to the same spot.

@@Aurora_The_Campervan is there a problem from water getting in to the tires? I seemed to have sealed 2 but the other 2 get water in them . I haven't tested them enough yet but am wondering how they hold up and if they collapse after time. Tia and nice rig!

So 2 of my tyres always get water in them as there’s small pinch holes on the sidewalls. All I do is squeeze it out because the donuts don’t hold the water. Once it’s out I just use a syringe and put it through one of the holes and put air back in.

These particular ones aren’t vented. We have other trucks with vented tires. We’ve just finished gluing a vented set with these donuts fitted and we’ll be trying them out soon.

Does water cause issues if it gets in?

@@SorryIAteYourCookiesSanta it can cause rust if the inner parts are steel. Most budget wheels have steel center rings.

These ones in the video looks like 130 mm to me bc they look slightly bigger than the tires which i'm also guessing are ca 120 mm here. If you want more comression than he is getting in the video go with a 120 mm hair bun for 120 mm tires etc.

I'm trying large 10cm ones, for Traxxas Canyon Trail tyres on 1.9" wheels. 8cm I felt were too small, and I had tried 11.5 XL ones, but I found those too big.

I got these from Home Bargains. Cost about £5 I think.

It depends where you live. In the Uk most discount chains like B&M Bargains,Home Bargains, Poundstretchers as well as Ebay,Claires Accessories,Boots,Superdrug stock them. The former sell them for £1 each and in different sizes from 70mm to 120mm with 100mm being about right for 120mm 1.9's and 110mm for 130-135mm 2.2's. The fact that they are made out of a spun plastic makes them resistant to water degradation. For heavy rigs like the Traxxas TRX-4 Defender you might want to go larger for a firmer feel

@@heady2008 I got some in the end had to buy 8 to get 4 of the same size. Even though the 8 bought were the same. Go figure cheers anyway dude

Errrrrm, no I don’t, already got really good stuff.
