HI GUYS,

I'M LOOKING FOR SOME LARGE DIA BIAS PLY TIRES LIKE THE ONES IN THE ALA-KART KIT EXCEPT A LITTLE TALLER. OUTSIDE DIA BETWEEN 1.2" TO 1.3" INSIDE DIA BETWEEN .6" TO .72".

DOES SOMETHING LIKE THIS COME IN ANY KIT , OR DOES SOMEONE CAST THESE? I TRIES SCENES UNLIMITED, BUT NOTHING THAT BIG

LOOKING FOR SOMETHING WITH TREAD, NOT JUST GROOVES, REFERENCE PIC

Two maybes would be the AMT '57 Chrysler 300. The tires are 1 1/8 diameter and a skinny tread design. They have separate wide white inserts for the tires.  The other would be the Moebius Hudson Hornet. The same 1 and 1/8th inch diameter with pad printed wide whites and a slightly wider tread.

The Parts Box  in Australia lists  product #1070 in their tyres section. The rears are described as originating from the Monogram Lincoln

I have a set here and they are nice quality. I measure the outer diameter as  1.27" and the inner as .68"  They  have grooves to represent the tread

I have never purchased off this resin caster direct so i can't comment on how quickly orders are processed.

I have always purchased his products off BNA Model World who are a bit dearer but have always provided me with an excellent service and have a real time inventory of stock levels.

THANKS FOR ALL THE INFO GUYS, I REALLY APPRECIATE IT. I'M GOING TO KEEP LOOKING AROUND, BUT THE PARTS BOX SET LOOKS PRETTY GOOD. ANY THOUGHTS ON THE LINDBERG 48 LINCOLN KIT TIRES?
