Superpeterbilt Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 Can anyone steer me in the right direction on finding some wide tires in 1/16 scale? I dont know for sure yet the exact width I need. Are there any aftermarket sources for tires, or any kits that I may be able to swipe them from? Just to ballpark it I think what I need would be about 1.5" wide. If I have posted too vague of a question, let me know and I will try to give more details.
LDO Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 (edited) Whoa. A tire 24" wide? I was going to recommend a tire from a Fujimi exotic car, but I don't know of any that wide. Edited June 26, 2015 by LDO

LDO Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Look for tires from a Lamborghini Countach. It had 345 series tires. Also look for a Koenig Ferrari Testarossa.

Superpeterbilt Posted July 4, 2015 Author Posted July 4, 2015 MPC 427 Cobra, BIG meats That looks like what I need. Would it be too much trouble to get some dimensions on the rears?

John Pol Posted July 4, 2015 Posted July 4, 2015 you can always check out radio control tires for the wide ones you want
