What are the softest/stickiest tires I can put on a Typhon TLR for parking lot racing?

@Moirae .. those R1's I had got so sticky on a warm morning that I couldn't pick my car up..!! It was stuck to the roadHonestly, I can't even imagine how sticky the soft compound is because once my hard grps heat up they literally pick up rocks all over the road.
Cool that you can get staggered widths in 100mm. I haven’t tried them yet. One YouTuber said he liked the tires but hated the wheels, stripped his hexes quickly. That can often be the fault of the user, though. I torque all of mine down pretty well.Anybody try those MethodRC street tires? I want to try a set of those next.

funny enough I've had a set of those tires for MONTHS and I've been too lazy to glue themPowerHobby Grippers are a good option too. They hold up well to 8S power and they stick good...they may not last as long as the GRPs though. I recently ran a new set down after about 5 parking lot bashes. I like the medium soft GRPs (XM3 or XM4) because they seem to last a little longer but both are fun. I get good traction from both and you can still drift some when desired. The softer GRPs (XB or XM1) are super sticky and heat up quick (which is what you want). I use those for light drag racing if I don't have foams on.
