PROLINE IMPACT 1/8 FOAM INSERTS (PR) For RC Car

The Pro-Line Impact 1/8 Foam Inserts (Part No: PL6195-00) are high-quality internal support foams designed specifically for 1/8 scale off-road buggy tires. These inserts are part of Pro-Line's "Impact" line, engineered to provide a balanced "firm" feel that bridges the gap between traditional soft open-cell foams and ultra-stiff modern closed-cell inserts.

Key Features:

• Impact Firm Density: These white foam inserts are designed with a firmer density to provide better sidewall support during high-speed cornering, reducing the "folding" effect of the tire carcass.
• Vibration Dampening: The specific cell structure of the Impact foam helps absorb harsh landings and track "chatter," which keeps the tire's contact patch more consistent on rough surfaces.
• Universal 1/8 Buggy Fit: Sized to fit virtually any standard 1/8 scale buggy tire (approx. 110mm outer diameter), including those from Pro-Line, AKA, and JConcepts.
• Lightweight Performance: Despite their firmer feel, they are kept lightweight to minimize rotational mass, ensuring your buggy maintains quick acceleration and responsive braking.
• Durability: Highly resistant to "packing out" (losing their shape) over time, ensuring your tires maintain a consistent profile throughout long racing mains.

Racing Tip:

These firm white foams are an excellent choice for outdoor dusty tracks where a fully closed-cell insert might be too stiff and bouncy. The Impact foam allows the tire to "conform" slightly more to the terrain for better mechanical grip. Pro-Tip: Before installation, ensure the inside of your tires are clean of any mold release agents. If you find the inserts are a very tight fit, you can lightly "vent" your tires (punching two small 2-3mm holes in the tread) to allow air to escape, preventing the "ballooning" effect at high RPMs.
