prepping tires for B4
 

I am going to prep the tires for a friend of mine, who hasn't driven his B4 in years. As I drive 4Wd myself.. I have forgotten how the tires for a 2WD are prepped.

He still has some Shum Minipins Yellow Rear and Schum Staggered yellow, so these should do when the grass is dry and short.
But I would like to pre some Schum MiniSpikes Front and Rear in case of longer grass and/or wet.

My question now: should I mount inserts into the Front-tyres?
I know a lot of drivers who mount their Front-tyres without inserts when gluing Staggered ... but what with MiniSpikes

... and also, why?

thx in advance

insert always,no matter what the tyre,

Incorrect, the Schumacher Stagger Rib is used without inserts, maybe not in the UK, but in Belgium and on most carpet tracks no inserts are used.

is that just to give it a little more bite on the track

Yes, and it makes the car somewhat smoother as well, for tracks like Kampenhout it is way better.

ok cool
