Jconcepts ruptures tyre insert/foam for heavy trx4 high trail

[loonynino]

Hi, looking for tyre inserts or foams for the 4.9"/125mm ruptures tyres. The stock foams are way too soft for the heavy trx4. I searched online and normal inserts are for 4.75"/120mm tyres, and according to reviews they dont fill the tyre  please help!

The only inserts I could find for ruptures was on etsy. 

From the US and shipping is expensive. 

The green injora inserts are apparently good for tyres up to 122mm. I've tried them in ruptures and they are too small.

SL3D Squidnserts make a Rupture specific anti-foam.

 

https://sl3drc.com/product/squidnserts-for-1-9-wheels/

 

Shipping from the US is $35, just received mine (ordered with another member for shared shipping). See if someone else needs/wants squids (best anti-foams according to popular consensus). 

 

And the guy we spoke to was helpful too, so there's that.

I have ALT Foams in my Ruptures. They come in various weights…soft, super soft etc and are tyre specific-the ones in my Ruptures fit perfectly. They’re a German company and their website is in German, unfortunately, but if you go to their Facebook page they’ll answer questions in English and help with any orders.  I’ve not finished the build I’m using them on yet, so can’t say if they’re any good performance wise, but they have a nice density and are well made.  I found out about them on the Hardcore RC group page, and our American cousins that use them really rate them. 
 

I also have a set of SL3D Squids to fit the Ruptures and they feel really nice too. The only thing with them is that they don’t come in different weights, so not sure if they’d suit a heavy truck like the TRX4. You could always email Neal and ask his opinion…he’s very helpful.
