ben Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 koxx pads are grind pads id say even though they seem to blunten them realy quick. crms are awsome on a grind but i wouldnt say there much cop on a smooth rim zoos are the norm for a smooth rim but as soon as u start using tar pads dont realy matter as ali said a small poodle and some chips would do.ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 if you must use a smooth rim, instead of using tar, you can slightly soften the pad by pushing it against a hot flat surface....it makes the pad slightly tacky and works mint on a smooth rim, even in water (but forget it when theres mud involved) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt! Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 smooth rim, with zoo pads, lil bit of tar, or a worn grind,with plazmatic crmz! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
