Hawk312 Posted May 7, 2021 Posted May 7, 2021 I am at my end. I am really having trouble with making copies of a tire. I just do not have the equipment (or time) to get them right. I have a master tire that I would be willing to provide if someone else could make the mold and copies. Do you guys have any suggestions for anybody that would do something like this? Thanks.
paul alflen Posted May 7, 2021 Posted May 7, 2021 Contact Danny at Scenes Unlimited, or see if the Modelhaus' son would be interested, he still markets the tire line that Don did years ago. good luck
Dodge Driver Posted May 8, 2021 Posted May 8, 2021 Greg Wann at Holy Grail Resin Parts came to my mind. I've seen small lot/custom cast posts on the Holy Grail Facebook page. Holy Grail Resin has a proboards site if you don't Facebook.
Greg Wann Posted May 8, 2021 Posted May 8, 2021 I might be able to help you. What material is your master tire made from? Got pics?

Thanks guys! Greg, here is the tire I am working with. It appears to be real rubber from an RC car. It is 1/16 scale. I used it in my `81 Trans Am build. I made a mold and cast a few tires myself, but I had to make a bunch to get 4 good ones and I ended up destroying the mold afterwards. Edited May 11, 2021 by Hawk312
