outlaw035 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 does anyone know of or have a set of tires with meat on them that will fit on these pegasus wheels they are little under 7/8 " wide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 The old Revellogram Good Year Eagle GT's that came in the Alternomad, Vetagin, Mustang Mach III's and various other kits with those tires will fit them perfectly. You just have to cut out the center ring inside the tire. I heat them a touch with a lighter to make them softer and slide on easier. Here's a set on the rear of this Torino... I've tried the slightly smaller, narrower tire for the fronts. But, I don't like the look. They still look like they have the same sized tire all around.

Force Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 I used Tamiya tires at the rear on this build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hgbben Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Pegasus also makes thicker sidewall tires for them. They have Bridgestone and Michelin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Pegasus also makes thicker sidewall tires for them. They have Bridgestone and Michelin How much bigger are they Ben? I haven't seen them yet. Do you have a link to them? I've noticed that the tires that come on the aluminum sleeves are a little bigger. Could they possibly be the same tires?

hgbben Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 The tires that come on the sleeves are different as the rim itself is a different diameter. Here is a pic of the same diameter wheel you are using with meatier tires. Sorry it's not a visual comparison vs stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Those look a lot better than the originals Ben! I'll have to check into those! Where are you getting them? Directly from Pegasus or? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
