Hi all, I’m new here! I restore 1:8 scale RC cars with nitro .21 engines. There is one car from 1969 that I ‘m trying to restore, which needs new molded tyres. I have the old ones, and of course the wheels that they should fit on. Front and rears are different, the rears being slightly wider. As you can see, the rims have a ridge, the tyres a groove..to prevent them from slipping off.  Ideally I’d like them to be a very dark grey, otherwise black. Who can make these for me? I’m in the Netherlands, but can ship the originals worldwide. Thanks in advance!

You might also try posting this on a slot car forum such as SlotForum or SlotBlog. Jel Claws makes tires for 1/64 and 1/32 slot cars, that are some sort of compound that's better than urethane. I realize that's no where near the size you need, but perhaps that might steer you in the right direction.   

Google "Jel Claws" 

Good luck ?

Thanks for that suggestion! I will certainly look into that.
