Hi guys, does anyone know of a source for these slicks? Not the ones that are depicted as being launched and wrinkling from motion, but the soft looking slicks that wrinkle properly while the car is sitting, or idling.

The monogram Cop Out kit has slicks like that. The MPC 66 GTO had some hard plastic styrene molded two piece versions as well,those were Pie Crust old school style.

The Monogram kit has the ones I'm interested in. I like the way they look.

Nick, they don't have them. They have the "car moving" type.

I just have a problem with the car body is tilted up, no driver, but the slicks are about to spin off the rims.

All the Monogram kits have the wrinkles going the same direction, so they only look correct on one side of the vehicle. Probably best to avoid those.

AMT did several styles and brands, just depends upon how much wrinkle is right for you, and the width you're looking for:

Joe, yeah there just starting to dig in, not too fast yet.

Casey, those are getting close, especially the one on the right. Flattened looks good too! Thanks.

Here is a somewhat fuzzy pic of what I'm looking for;

Some wrinkles can be seen while the car sits. I'll do more research.
