I run nothing but sillies. So I can't wait to give them a try. I have a lot of cars and they all have super tires on them now. But will for sure be getting a few of these to try!! Very exciting news Harry!!!

Outstanding review! Glad to see what appears to be an excellent newcomer to the scene. I'm sure the folks needing silicone will be thrilled based on your testing.

Mark, they are easier to sand than other silicones. But nothing like a urethane. If you need to remove a fair amount to try and compensate for the out of round characteristics of a plastic wheel, especially a FLY, might want to check PG.
But if the gear is pretty good, go for it. It won't kill the slot budget to try??

Anyone have a "time" compared to the "other" tires.
Faster,slower ?
Inquireing minds would like to know.
Thanks,

About the same, too close to really give one or the other a claim. The only 2 sets I nave are the standard ones with no rounded sidewalls. I contoured them with a razor. If the compound ever changed, then my test means nothing.
Not that it matters much. Your track is different I am sure than mine. So, you will just have to test.
