foam's generally come pre-mounted, when they are worn out, you throw the whole lot in the bin.

I can get you some rims, cheap, but having read the other thread, Kevin is saying the rim's for AARCMCC will be controlled as well as the tyre and insert. hrmmm

Also, rubber tyres will not fit on foam rims as they have no bead to sit the tyre in.
