anyone know?
specifically I'm looking for some options for running indoor, mixture of Ozite and concrete (!)
Thanks

I just found out about these tires myself. The "K" compound tires are much harder than the "C" compound (both sets of tires should include molded inserts).

My Durga comes stock with "K" compound tires. K's are fine for softer outdoor tracks with some loose dirt, but miserable to run on hard clay indoor tracks. I should know since I slid around like crazy till I changed my tires.

The "C" compound tires are -much- softer and hook up really good on hard tracks. Go with these tires for your indoor runs.
