I'd try model airplane parts. I ended up with this pair somehow, but I have seen different size/scales. Use as is or mill the rim to suit you.

I'd look at 1/32 scale car kits too. Some of the Monogram and Revell Snap Kits in 1/32 from the 1970'-80's have wheel and tires that might work nicely.

The Revell Top Fuel Dragster kits from the late 80's early 90's has small front wheels that might do the trick, they are a bit narrower and maybe a bit small but they are the only ones I know of.
First was the Don Garlits Swamp Rat XXX from 1987, then came the Castrol dragster, the Valvoline dragster, the Jolly Rancher dragster, the Mobil 1 dragster and the McDonalds dragster, all these has small aeroplane style front wheels but the later ones don't.

Here is one I built back in the early 90's.
