I’m appealing to the auto and truck modelers out there on this one… Anyone know of a reliable retailer or brand of scale model tire? Specifically, I’m looking for an inexpensive tire (resin or rubber) with the wheel either molded on or as a separate part. Diameter about 0.75 to 1.25 inch. Must be wide with thick tread. It’s for a construction equipment model (6-wheeled crane) that will be scratchbuilt. I’ve looked on yahoo, but can only find very sparse help. Only one or two dudes that look like they’re selling them out of their garage. Thanks.
[;)] Shamrage. You can try a company from England: Kit Form Services, they have a web site as well. Some of the best resin truck tire and wheel combos available. Also Spaulding trading carries KFS items and Auslowe as well. A quick search via Google will produce these sites as readily available. Or as a last resort you can type in (Resin cast truck parts). There are many resin cast aftermarket dealers out there. Depends on the scale you are building. Hope this helps.
Thanks, G. I’ll look them up next chance I get.
