Yeah, but only the painted floor at SuperFly's office... same shitty results. My livingroom floor is pretty badass to drive on, but we're talking about building a track.CaboWabo wrote:what is sap still leaking out of the wood or what? lol

Pullbacks are the end all be all of tires in the bit world...
If the fronts are too grippy for you hue, just change up your compound by using a bit of baby powder on the fronts. You coat em enough, and they'll slide like hard plastic.

I too love the pullback tires, i got 4 sets, and using them daily!
BUT! Inspired by the Ferrari 360 Modena which has 275cm rear tires or so and.. Hang on.. Only 215cm tires in front, i grabbed a Shen, rear pullback wheels, but stock front wheels. The handling is great, it doesnt really spin out anymore, and does much sharper turns. This is with a 4.2 if you ask.

Do i need a better signature?

Yeah, gotta agree with hue here. Our cars drive near perfectly on the floor with stock wheels. Best tires are LXX tires in the rear, with Bit Char-A tires a close second. Up front, the best thing going is KIT racer black tires (from the slalom flavor), with bit/MS hard, grey ribbed and stock mediums in second, depending on the car. As long as the car is tracking straight and turns the same radius in either direction, it can't be improved upon. If it turned any sharper it would just flip. The pullbacks on the rear aren't bad, but they're just too fat up front. As I've said before, y'all are lucky you don't live too close or I'd own all your cars.
