What foam tires do you use on your on-road racer?
I have a set of JACO Nitro Shoes, TRC Foams and im going to probably get the hpi foams.
What are your favorites. Im still searching for mine.

Depends on how shes handling as to which tire you use.On stock oval i run RC4less tires grays on the RR and RF which should durometer a little over 40-45. And creams on the LR and LF which should durometer out to a low 30. In 4 cell mod. Whites on the left side which durometer out to a low 20 and creams on the left. On touring i forget but i will get out the durometer to tell u my current set up, I always use TRC tires for touring. Remember in a racing setting to get new tires every week or two due to them softening up.

Damn my TRC foam have been sitting in a box for over a year now....guess those have softened up some then.

Nope...if they have been sitting in a box they have probly gotten harder. But if you race they will soften up due to putting traction compound on them and also picking up compound from the track will soften them up.
Ive never used foams since I have never driven my car indoors. I just run v-rage tires on my xxx-s in the parking lot races. Also, the only indoor track within an hour of me closed.
