Hey, I'm looking to buy new tires for my TC3. I was wondering which is better to go with, foam tires in this case GRP Arrows, or rubber tires in this case Proline V Rages. I'm looking for grip, specially around corners. thanks

Depends on the surface.

i'd def go with rubber. foams chunk way too easy on an unprepared surface. and there are sticky rubbers. hpi make good tires too. and for unprepared something lightly treaded like x patterns are nice n sticky.
