Do any of you guys bother strapping your tires to keep them from ballooning?
Ive never tried it before, so maybe I'll just leave them alone and glue'm up

I did it to my CF's and two sets of Boas, and to be honest I can't tell if they balloon or not while they sit on my workshop bench.......


sorry, couldn't resist.

No don't strap for trug.

OK, if you say so, I wont do it then...
LOL J/K

Seriously though, do you have experience strapping truggy tires?
Just wondering...


I wasnt set on doing it anyway, I just thought I see what others have to say on the subject.

Ive got them glue'n up now with no straps

i really doesnt help, if u have a car that has traction ur tires wont balloon on power anyway.....

Yep on that k2 "truggy" I guess you could call it. I liked the handling much more when the tires were able to balloon compared to when they couldn't because of strapping.

I've tried it and it does help to some degree. I used the 2" wide 3M strapping tape. Thing is, after a short while, the tires seemed out of balance. So I baked them off of the rims and found that the tape had come loose from the tires even though I had cleaned them thoroughly. I don't bother any longer I use the nice GRP molded foams. Problem solved.
