RudeBits Cheaters foam inserts

RudeBits have released their line of Cheaters foam inserts for 1/10th offroad. After extensive testing with various cars at various tracks and with various tyres, they discovered a combination of size and density of foam that promotes consistency and quicker lap times. They tooled up and designed the RB Foams which offer a unique size to all other foams on the market. With more absorption and progressive over bumps as well as more support for the tyre, especially after a few laps they claim to provide more side bite and faster lap times. Available as single pairs or in bulk as 5 and 10 pair sets.

While the new colour is the big change, the wheel itself maintains it 6mm offset, and the adoption of a large inner diameter & thin rim that avoids interference with the suspension is the same as the current UL12.
