Foam is used for insulation not reinforcement. It's used to deaden the sound of noisy tires,
Mostly use on luxury vehicles.

Guess you're right.

That said, I don't trust run-flats anyhow, or most low profile tires.

Man it's amazing how much more bearable a 10 hour day is when the last 3 hours aren't in the dark.

Just picked these up. Any idea what the foam pads are for?

Those are not on the sidewalls.
Neither are these.

I know what you are saying. However, according to Pirelli, the Zero Nero run-flats have side wall stabilizers. That foam we see could very well be a differ foam to keep the tire semi-inflated until replaced (usually <50 miles).

They are more a performance tire than a luxury tire. The performance guys don't care about noise.

Can you believe she's 19 months old!!!


On the downslope to 2.

Haven’t seen a pic in a few weeks. You’re slacking. Lol.

Don’t worry, @Brownslave688 will have his princess catching snapping turtles as soon as his wife’s back is turned. He’s already had her in a tree stand and she just turned one. Lol.

We are ready for some nice weather. Been rainy and cold. Ava and daddy need some time in the woods.

What are the odds she has a new bow?

 

[Brownslave688]

Ugh

 

[burrheadd]

Are you for real??

Turns out the puppy was deformed----I guess that made it OK to feed it to the snapping turtle in front of a bunch of 7th graders.

It is very, very rare for a snapping turtle to eat a live puppy in nature.

Saw one eat 4 nice sized rainbow trout right off my damn stringer

Once when we were kids we forgot our basket and had to use an old fashioned stringer.


When the day was over we pulled out a stringer full of heads.

You’ll have her wearing gloves to play in mud. Lol.

I really wish y'all could experience her personality.

There were no less than 7 other babies within 4-5 months of her from our town at the state tournament.

She was the only one not glued to mom and dad or to a phone with videos playing. She was either jumping up and down and clapping with everyone else when things went good or dancing everytime the band played. Or yelling ah the refs with daddy.

She's unique and I love it.

Sounds crazy, but I can see that in her pictures.
