first of all its a good idea to make sure the topic of the thread is spelled properly. second of all ya im sure theyd work but unless you cut them perfectly they will probably wobble so id stick with tires made for this purpose.

yeah, i use these on some of my bits. like hj said, you gotta cut them straight, seat them properly and they have a taller profile than normal bit tyres. they stick to concrete like snot on a window and offer a little suspension. they're not as great on the front wheels, you'd have to tighten the steering spring or add another as they wobble around unless seated perfectly. these are the ones i use,

i put them on a car i modded. some are a tight fit but the trick is to flatten the foam down as flat as possible and then make the cut real straight. i used a ruler with a metal edge as the guide for my exacto knife.
