Default Which inserts & do you trim them ?

Hi guys & gals

What are the best inserts for 10th off road ? What are the new shumacher green ones like ? Do people still trim the square edges off them ? Cheers

same as above, and I gave up trimming them as it made no difference for me! I used to cut the inside edge to prevent glue getting on the foam there, but now dont bother as acetone removes it all.

either edit purple or mr O (same as a snee blue) inserts are both very good and readily available either from a shop for edit or from mr o racing aka doorbell on here ( normally found in the t-tech section) both inserts are very simlar in compound and will feel the same on track as for trimming the foam that is a very personal thing as most people think it does something different depending on which part you trim, ive only noticed a difference on very low grip with soft compounds so dont tend to worry on the uk tracks

Dave,

A couple of years back EVERYONE ran the 'snee blue', so I stocked up on loads and stiull run them. Since then Snee has stopped selling them (weren't they bought by MTroniks?) but basically there are now foams that are VERY similair which people run. I'm pretty sure Mr O and Edit ones are two of the closest matches.

I used to trim but also couldn't tell the difference so don't bother either.
