Do not play these
I've read a lot of reviews on the Tama Silent Tips, where people argue that you can easily practice in the evening at home or anywhere else, where it is necessary to play soft. Are all of them Tama-endorsers?
Those tips do NOT bring you any volume advantage to play softer! Of course, the clatter of the sticks is diminished slightly. But due to the fact that these tips are pretty heavy, the stroke that you execute becomes heavier as well. Consequence: more power and ultimately as loud as beforehand. The stroke is like a heavy smack.
Another negative side-effect: due to the weight of the tips, the balance of the sticks changes drastically. There is a lot more weight on the front end of the stick, so you have to adapt your technique to this. Once you get back to your normal sticks, you have to adapt again. So there is no real benefit in practicing for me.
Last but not least: it is already pretty annoying to put the silent tips over the tips of your sticks. But the removal becomes a mission in life. Not to break them, when you want to remove the tips, is nearly impossible.
I would actually give it a lower rating. But the price tag is so low that I actually don't care about the failure of buying them.

I don't get the excitement of people who bought this. It doesn't decrease noise level it just makes it lower. And it doesn't make sticks playable on any surface, I would rather do it without these tips.
Pros:
+ quality is fine
Cons:
- doesn't decrease noise level
- decreases rebound
- makes sticks much heavier.
- makes tips of sticks heavier, so with my 5A stick it feels like I use em upside down
- i tried to use it with my MPS-850 E-drum Set and noise level is even increased

Useless Stuff
They do not muffle the sound, very heavy, and the balance of the sticks disappears completely. Thrown out.

Waste of time, money and sticks
Wasn't a fan of these. Luckily I put them on some fairly used sticks, there is no way in getting them off unless you use extreme force.
They don't make things sound 'quieter', just different. And to be honest, just use a cushion?!
They shift much more weight to the end of the stick too.
