No - thicker center diff oil will help

I've recently switched to running 50,000 weight center diff fluid in my D8T. Also, all four tires have Gorilla tape on the inside. This has made a huge difference with ballooning for me.

Did you take the tires before gluing them?

no i didn't. The tires were set up for a different MT and i didn't have issues with ballooning. Since i picked up this truggy, i wanted to use them on it..

A trick I used is to turn the tires inside out then put a strip of duck tape around the tire then return the tires to normal insert the foam and glue them
