Caster Racing Tires Pre-mounted [Archive]

These are the Caster Racing wheels and tires available that are premounted and glued. They are extremely nice and the compound is pretty soft too. They also have moulded foams in them from what I can see in the hole in the rim. Here is a pic of the 2 different tread patterns out now side by side.

Part #'s ZB01-R and ZB02-R

left side front, right side rears? what do the zb03's look like? what are the ones with the circles?

left side front, right side rears? what do the zb03's look like? what are the ones with the circles?

No. Those are the 2 different treads. They come as a pair so if you want to use one as a set of rears go right ahead. I got 2 pairs of each.

ZB03-R's look the same. Not sure what is different. The ones with the circles that you saw me run at Bartow come with the ZX1.5R KIT.

Are they the VP Pro tires repacked? Are they on V2 width rims?

Are they the VP Pro tires repacked? Are they on V2 width rims?

I am about 99% sure they are repackaged VP-PRO's. I sell VP-PRO's and have ordered these same tread patterns and the rubber and tread are exactly the same. NO they are not the wider rims. Just the standard size. I do have some of the Wide VP PRO wheels and tires coming in though.

Hak,

Any idea when you'll have them in stock?

vnmsgt

01-07-2009, 08:37 PM

Whats the price on them? I like the VP-pro premounts and those 2 together is killer combo out here. I like that you can buy 2 instead of 4 so you can get 2 of each kind like I like. And what the difference between the 2r and 3r part numbers? And will caster have the wide whels and tires too?
I have not idea what the difference between the 2R and 3R tires are. They look identical. Maybe tire compound? Mike will have to find out. I do not think they will be able to get the wide tires as they just came out so VP is probably keeping them for themselves for now as most do when something new is released.

DEZNUTS..... I think Hak just ordered some. Me and Clayton spoke to him about the tires and that they actually were really good so he can carry them.

hakmazter

01-07-2009, 10:21 PM

I just ordered 8 sets of 1s and 2s....

I will change the picture of the 2 or 3 right now... One of them is wrong.

No new Caster sneakers for the Truggy?

Team Hoagie

01-08-2009, 05:57 AM

That middle bar on the 01 & 02 reminds me of the Panther K1 & K2 tires, I like the looks of these :) Would you compare the tire's stud size to say the Proline Bowties? The 03 studs look to be very stout.

razzor

01-08-2009, 06:10 AM

The 03 is very similar to the GRP atomics.

vnmsgt

01-08-2009, 06:20 AM

The 03 is the exact same tire as the Stryker tire from VP. I got a set by mistake. My friend runs them and loves them but he is not a racer. I could not sell them to a racer for nothing when they saw it.

vnmsgt

01-08-2009, 06:21 AM

I believe so. Never asked him but he does carry everything VP.

Hak I need a set of each of the 2 you ordered added on my order please. The 3rd one looks like it may be good in a muddy situation.

01-08-2009, 07:37 AM

the 3rd would be good on hard packed conditions where there is a slight fluff sort of like the jconcepts goosebumps

Deznuts05

This season is going to be fun new tire companies, new buggy, new format (personally).

2009 is going to ROCK! Keep us posted when they come in stock :)

I agree there too but Goosebumps work well on a hard packed track alittle loamy with rain or too much water too. Well NEW gosebumps.

Deznuts05

01-08-2009, 08:38 AM

Dude C - yes there are 3 different types

vnmsgt

01-08-2009, 10:11 AM

They should be available for him to order. These tires have actually been available for awhile now but a certain person would never order them or stock them. (No names mentioned but not Mike). Glad to have finally gotten some to use as I have wanted to try them for a long time now.

Yes.

malik

01-09-2009, 08:33 AM

Russel sponsors me and told me about them last year and wow are they for real the foams are awsome and the treads last for ever. The trick is to run the 1 in the left in the pic in the fr and the right side in the rear. I always ran Bowfighters but not no more that combo is the NEW bowfighters. And I like now you dont have to buy 4 of each because I usually want only 2 of each and from Caster, its a win win for me.

Deznuts05

01-09-2009, 05:53 PM

any recomendations for Clay?

hakmazter

vnmsgt

01-11-2009, 09:15 PM

Hey guys, ran the tires today. I used the ZB01 for the rear and ZB02 for the fronts. They worked awesome! Traction and steering response was great and wear was hardly noticeable. Ran one qual and a 20 minute main. Foams are still perfect and glue held up perfect. You guys will like them.

What's the surface that you run on?

vnmsgt

01-11-2009, 09:27 PM

It was a pretty hard packed dusty and loose. It did groove up but had to stay right in the groove or would get a little slippery.

VP makes a tire for clay but Caster doesnt have them they are similar to a Holeshot but better in my eyes.

Looks like the updated truggy that may be coming out is getting new tires but do not look like LPR tires. I think they are more MTR tires. Will have to wait and see.

yeah i ran the snake eyes for quite a while on my 10th scale truck before they were shot. they wear pretty well. i thought they wouldn't last very long with that hole in them but for some reason they just kept hooking up. i used them and r3 holeshots the entire year last year. but those truggy tires look top notch for sure.

Going by the buggy version they should work very well.

Tell Bob to QUIT WEARING OUT MY TIRES LOL!!

BTW I ran these tires on the buggy today for the 3rd Race day in a row and worked awesome. Foams are still perfect and plenty of tread left. Traction was very good. Not blue grooved today but was watered down at one point and traction was crazy then dried up and a little loose dirt on top and still was good traction. Could cut the turns sharp and still drift out the rear if I wanted too.

razzor

These tyres really worked well and better than the other tyres i used recently.

Not sure of the compound but I would say the harder compound. I have I think 4 races on mine and are hardly showing any wear.

razzor

02-05-2009, 02:13 AM

Well they not not as hard as M2's but wear a lot less than M3's

Will Caster be making some LPR style tires in the future?

j_blaze14

02-05-2009, 03:00 PM

the buggy tires i got are like m4 bowties, way soft. the red foam inside is molded red with a film over the foam to keep it from soaking up water and such. just need to get my hand on a set for the truggy.

puba187

03-05-2009, 10:19 PM

after mounting mine up i can assure that the only thing keeping me from ordering more right away is that these will most likely have tread left on them after 3 or 4 race weekends. that is amazing! i have never seen ANY tire wear this well. even if you get more than we as a team right now they will continue to sell throughout the year. heck i want to know if we can get some of those zb-03's and the tires that came on the original buggy. for that matter i'm willing to give the ones on the 1.5 a shot.

Maybe we can become a proline someday.

vnmsgt

03-06-2009, 06:35 AM

i ran half a gallon on mine a couple of weekends ago and was shocked when i saw how much wear they had. literally they have about 90 to 95% tread left on them! a set of pro-lines would never last that long.

Weird thing is the rubber is soft and you get a ton of grip but now wear. People reading this are going to think they are a hard compound but the are not.

puba187

03-06-2009, 09:31 AM

i know its really weird. they are like an r3 compound but they wear like some 80,000 mile Falkens.

The ones that come in the kit are not the premounts we are talking about here. I do not know the compound but the KIT tires are softer than the premounts. I would not use the foam though from the KIT. Use moulded foams.

DustinH

03-06-2009, 10:45 PM

Yeah, I mounted the tires from the kit and the foams are way too soft. I had to unglue them and put in firm ofna molded foams with new wheels. The kit wheels were cracking due to the soft foams.

DustinH

04-08-2009, 09:30 AM

I just got my ZB-01 premounts yesterday and the foams look like the same ones that come with the kit. I was under the impression they had better foams in them.

All I can say right now Dustin is to try them out and see if the foams hold up. I know I have heard that Mikey has been working on different foams that will hold up and be good and that are not moulded so these might be them. Will not know unless you try.

Dang your getting really DEMANDING now that your the Regional Team Manager...lol

I know where you can get a set of Panthers on the Cheap...lol

Not that I am being demanding, it is just that IF those are the same foams that come in the KIT stock, they will not last 1 tank of fuel before turning to dust and in that case NOBODY will want to run them. Its just the truth. Who will pay money for premounted glued tires, regardless if its the team driver price if they have to unglue them and buy foams and glue them back up. That is all I am trying to say.

Besides I was the first one BUY and to try these tires to test out and said how good they were and how good the foams were and some people went off of that as a decision to use them. Now with these foams IF like I said they are the bad foams, it makes me look bad if someone bought them for that reason.

badassrevo

04-08-2009, 12:07 PM

I thought they had some type of white/off white tape around the outside of the foam to prevent water damage?

DustinH

Could we see the foams out of the tires? Should I seal the holes in the tires and wheels or leave them open? I have heard of some people doing this.

I leave them open. I know some people just put the holes in the tires to let any dirt out that gets in there and not put holes in the rim. I do both and do not have any problem.

Dave D

04-09-2009, 08:47 AM

Actuelly the holes are there to let air out.
If you glue a set of tires up with no holes in them you will have a little bit of air get inside and when the tires balloon or get high speed they fill up then you have a tire with air in it when you stop and they won't work properly.

razzor

04-09-2009, 10:09 AM

usually the rims have holes on them to allow the wheels to breath if you can call it that.
The holes on the tyres help the tyres throw out water by centrifugal force if they get soaked and allow the tyres to breath as well.

Andy Taylor

04-13-2009, 04:00 PM

The 03 is very similar to the GRP atomics.

The GRP tires are made out of too much plastic. I know the GRP drivers at neo had some made with rubber and they seemed to work better.

The Tread pattern of the atomic is good so a rubber version might provide a better grip.

gofast072

Andy Taylor

04-14-2009, 03:27 AM

i think the caster tires are awesome they just could use a firmer foam. And my zbo2s came with red molded foams they are just to soft of a foam. We need something like the aka foams. Before long proline will have something like them.

Are the castor tyres in production? I thought Pete said the tyres were still some way of getting to the UK. Tyres are the key to racing IMHO. There are way too many treads and patterns compounds and types available for any distributer, shop or driver to carry enough to be sure of having enough of the right one for each track. While Lee had an A team drive with GRP it was easier as we used them when we could but GRP flat pattern tyres rarely worked in the UK due to the heat (or lack of it). Their new cone spike was a step in the right direction for us.

We need a spiked tyre as close as possible to the Hobao angle spike for many of our tracks.

Cost of tyres for many drivers is putting a number off racing. The thing is they dont need new tyres to be on the same lap times as they get now but they think they do :) Any company who can reduce price will still make a killing , especially if they work well..

Andy Taylor

04-14-2009, 03:31 AM

yep. I wish I knew how many people actually wanted them.....I hate running out, but I also hate sitting on dead inventory...
The problem is they are being released daily now.....new tyres are all over the UK but the mistake they are making is price. Its too high. The distributors dont make that much on them and if they fill the shelves but a new "FAD" appears they get stuck with them. Shops its even worse. They have to deal with many Brands.

If a company aimed a little lower in price they would sell more and most likely guarantee a continued market to the average driver.

razzor

04-14-2009, 03:35 AM

Unfortunately Andy that is a reality we facing currently and i dont see it changing soon.
For it to change though we need the racers to change the mindset first and get out of the habit of going with the tyre flavour of the month.

The Caster tyres are excellent but as mentioned the inserts let them down.
I use GRP orange inserts and the tyres last and give great traction.
My hassle now is to get a good glue to mount them ...

razzor

04-14-2009, 03:38 AM

An idea that was proposed for our club was to put a list together of 4 tyres that worked.
The local shops can then concentrate on these tyres rather than stock a whole range of different ones.
All racers are basically saved a expense of buying the latest and greatest but also it pushes them to setup there cars to work with what is allowed.

Unfortunately Andy that is a reality we facing currently and i dont see it changing soon.
For it to change though we need the racers to change the mindset first and get out of the habit of going with the tyre flavour of the month.

Price will do it......its better to make a bit less than to sell none at all IMHO. Sensible prices and good tyres would sell them selves.

The Caster tyres are excellent but as mentioned the inserts let them down.
I use GRP orange inserts and the tyres last and give great traction.
My hassle now is to get a good glue to mount them ...

???? castor bond we used over the weekend was awesome. The bottle it comes in is yuk.......but I transfer two castor bond bottles to one empty proline bottle and it seals after use great.

BUT most of all its very strong and when using J Concept sevens and answer RC wheels it bonded with out cleaning of buffing the wheels or tyres and I can honestly say that is hard to do.

Could be like our LHS and stock Kyosho and....Kyosho. Thanks to Keith Dolente, I got a variety of tires and the stock Casters too. I'm all for premounts but understand the lack of choice of foams/rubber.

Best thing we do is share track info at least at the road racing, 99% are running sorex 32r with team bomber yellows for the 23t class, but our off road track nothing seems to grip the sand/dirt.

I got my hands on one bottle awhile ago and it worked great. If Mike could get more I would sell them. Had a Customer use it as well and worked great for him too.

I have about a dozen runs on 1 set of ZB01's so far and the foams are holding up. They are the white soft ones. I havent tried my ZB02's yet but they did come with a red molded foam. So far so good the wear is awesome with this compound and the tread patterns working great, Ill give more info after the first race of the season next weekend.

We will see how they do.

Race day was bad last weekend. Didn't check my tires before I went to the tracks. Went to do set-up and noticed that the tires were soft. Ended up...the foams were disintegrated. I cut open the tires and powder fell out...My other Caster frd said he managed to get a replacement. Ha! I doubt I'll get it. Bummer..

You are talking about the truggy? If so then the foams are not good in the Truggy tires. They do exactly what you said. Only the buggy race tires have the good foams in them

Does that include the F8T tires? If so, I'm so glad I procrastinated cracking open my AKA glue. :confused:
