Thats the Molded Inner Foams. I don't see any real foam tires. maybe you can glue the inner foams to the rims and not use the tires. :)

GPM makes mounted foam tires for the Micro. There is a guy on ebay selling them. Has anyone in here used them??

One of our racers has one, but they require the GPM rims also since the tires are larger than the stock rims.

the good thing is using larger tires can increase your top end.

other_cents - aren't the tires pre-mounted to the rims?? the tires that i'm talking about are already mounted to the rim when you buy them.

I think they also sell them unmounted, but most of the time I have seen them they have been mounted.

I bought the mounted foam tires for the hell of it. I should be getting them any day now. I'm optimistic that they'll really help out.
