porschercr Posted June 7, 2020 Posted June 7, 2020 (edited) Does anyone know what modern car kits, that have tires in different widths front to rear? (Pro Touring type of tire.) Trevor Edited June 7, 2020 by porschercr
peteski Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 Are you looking for the actual model kit, just the tires, or just the wheels? American SATCO sold tire sets with big/little set of Pirelli tires. Those are very nice solid rubber tires. While I don't recall specifics, some Tamiya model cars have different size tires for the front and rear.

peteski Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 10006 is the set I'm thinking about. Or get 10005 and 10004 since 1006 has a pair from each set. They show up on eBay from time to time. Assuming of course that they have dimensions you would find usable.
Casey Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 (edited) Many kits have front and rear tires of the same diameter, but in different widths. For example: Can you be a bit more specific what you are looking for, or which wheels you have that you are trying to find tires to match? Edited June 8, 2020 by Casey

Thank you, I'll look on eBay... 3 hours ago, Casey said: Many kits have front and rear tires of the same diameter, but in different widths.

Wheels I will be getting, and looking for something that will fit on a 1/24 scale chassis, the chassis will be modified to accommodate the wider rear tires.
