Does anybody know the origin of this tire? It is made of soft rubber like Pegasus tires. I have four or five rears but only one front. I need another front but don't have any idea who made them. I got them from my deceased buddy's parts box. They may be an older set of Pegasus tires since he used to work there.

Chevy Camaro  AMT.  Not real sure, sir..

Thanks. I doubt these are AMT or Revell due to the material they are made from. I have not seen those two companies make a tire this plyable. Now, Tamiya or Fujimi, etc is a possibliity.

I agree. They look a read ringer for the Pegasus no name tires.

Completely different tread than any other Pegasus tires I have. Tread is much deeper and a different tread pattern. But, I do think it could be a Pegasus tire they may have made for a short time in the past?

I have two sets. One came with these I-ROCs and IIRC, the other set came on some "T"s.

That is them! The tires I have were loose in a parts box and had no wheels with them. I have never bought a set of Pegasus wheels that had these tires. They were all a different style of tread pattern.

I need one small tire. Want to get rid of a set or a set of the fronts?

I'll check to see if I have any extras. I thought I had more then two sets but that's all I can find at the moment.

At least you know what to look for now.

I second that. They look Pegasus.
