X-Grip rubber & foam tyre additives

X-Grip rubber & foam tyre additives

The new X-Grip tyre additives are available in specific foam and rubber variants to make the most out of the different tyre types. The foam traction compound is best used on low grip tracks as it makes for maximum traction while also being usable with rubber tyres in medium grip conditions. X-Grip rubber is best used with soft rubber tyres but also foam tyres in higher grip conditions. Both come easy to use and clearly marked plastic bottles.
