If I had to pick between the 2, I would say BSR. Most say that BSR white and Jaco are the same thing. I don't know for sure, gave up Jaco long ago.

I never had any luck with Jaco whites staying consistent through a 4 minute race.

Go with BSR. Better foam - MUCH better wheels.

My $.02

P.S. - You might want to move this thread to the "General Discussion" or "Product Support" areas. This area is for track discussions.

Just trying to help.

When I left Rc 8 years ago, you would have never seen anything but Jaco on my cars. When I came back, I went back with Jaco and soon found out they just weren't very good for me. After 5 sets, every wheel I tried wasn't true, and the car was very inconsistant. I switched to BSR's and added 2 laps to my best run ever up to that point. That is all I have run since.

i would say bsr is much better just for the sole purpose of the wheel but tm tires are also really good

I would run BSR because the tires are great and you have a wide variety.:thumbsup:

I switched back to Jaco's again this season. Can't really say that I have had any problems with them. Plus I get them really cheap at www.discountrctires.com

Try Windtunnel same foam smaller rim and you can buy 1 tire at a time or any combo of 4 ft or rear .I run them down in to the 1.97s with grip no problem.

BSR is a good foam and Windtunnel is every bit as good.

bsr peral white = Wt white

bsr white = wt 2 white

black = black

silver = silver

WT are allso a bit skinner on the car.

I like them better but that is just me.

BSR

Here's why:
The rims are awesome.
The rubber is top notch
The compound selection is just right.


Also John Foister really has put a lot of effort to make the tires better. John is an avid oval racer and knows exactly what we want with these tires from his own first hand experience. He has made the tires 3000% better than they uysed to be and way above any other brand. He really does a lot for the hobbly like sponsor the BRL, etc., etc.
I like to support the businesses who really care about the hobby and do whatever they can to make it better.

Thanks John for making us some badazz tires!

smaller rims = gearing up which might mean more speed

I switched back to Jaco's again this season. Can't really say that I have had any problems with them. Plus I get them really cheap at www.discountrctires.com

I switched back to Jaco's also, not any faster, not any slower and havn't broken a wheel yet (I hit a lot of stuff). Getting them cheap makes a difference on my tire budget. Can't beat the Jaco prices at Discount RC Tires. BSR's are nice because of the different coumpound combos available.
