NOBLNG Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Ha anyone ordered the 4x4 tires from prostreethobbies? Thanks!https://www.ebay.ca/itm/324564458920 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I ordered a set of the 44” boggers. The quality is no where near comparable to the rubber resin ones that Scenes Unlimed used to offer or the vinyl ones American Satco used to offer. However for the price, they are not too bad. Probably similar to BNL tires. They do have some air bubble holes. The back side will have to have a lot of excess material removed. If you like, I can post some pictures later.

As you can see, the front side and tread is pretty good. The backside will need work. For the price, I would probably purchase again. I hope that these help.

NOBLNG Posted May 25, 2021 Author Share Posted May 25, 2021 Thanks Brian. These are the44’s you mentioned? Any chance you have the outer diameter handy? I see what you mean about the inner sidewalls and air bubbles. I think I would have to rig them up on the lathe somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see what you mean about the inner sidewalls and air bubbles. I think I would have to rig them up on the lathe somehow. I went back and measured them and I am glad that I did. They are listed as 1.75” which would be 43.75” in 1/25th scale. Here are the measurements of the four that I have: 1.685”, 1.69”, 1.68”, 1.66” A couple are taller on one side than the other. One is especially bad. I hadn’t noticed this before. They are listed as 16.2mm wide. Mine are: .665“, .625”, .65”, .62” They list 19mm centers. mine are: .74”, .725“, .725”, .74” I don’t think that I would recommend them now unless you are building are dirty mud slinger.😀 Edited May 25, 2021 by DRIPTROIT 71 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Scenes Unlimited version is the best that I have found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I went back and measured the Scenes Unlimited tires and they vary some in size too. I guess as they cure the size may change some. The quality is excellent though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stitchdup Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Scene's unlimited also do these big rig off road tyres. They are one piece with the rim but you might be able to drill out the rim and fit your own if using larger rims. They come in pairs for the fronts and set of 4 for the rears with a choice of hubs. They seem pretty evenly sized but I didn't look that closely at them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemodeler Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Danny at Scenes Unlimited has designed some new off road tires and they are very nice, much cleaner than the ones you posted. He is going to be shut down starting the end of next week for a month. https://scenesunltd.com/collections/tires Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve gotten tires and rims from him before and they are excellent quality! 👍Unfortunately the super swampers are discontinued.☹️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gui_tarzan Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 I hope it's just for the month, Danny has always had great products. PSH needs to invest in a pressure pot and spend more time on their molds. Just saying from experience. Joseph at Fireball has some really nice truck tires. I bought a handful of different ones a while back. My only gripe with his site is he doesn't have preview pics so you have to open the links to see what they look like.
