Several of my slot cars from most brands are in need of front tires due to dry rot or the tires turning to goo. I have been trying to find suitable tires from PG but so far my guesses have left me with several pairs of tires that don't fit anything. The hardest so far to find have been tires for R/M Lolas and McLarens. Has someone developed a tire chart that includes replacement front tires? And, if so, where can I find it?

I would find that useful as well. I’ve wrecked a few pair myself.

those would be the two worst examples Bob! I turned the hubs down on a Razor to reduce the center flange diameter so the PGT-20105 fits.

Replacements for OEM front tires are a real problem. I would expect that the demand for those is not great enough for anyone to make replacements. Most of the time front tires will last a long time, if they eventually get hard that does not hurt anything. The real problem is the tires that turn to goo. If you are lucky someone may have found a tire that is close enough for your application. If someone wanted to make front tires a harder than normal compound would be better.

By any chance does someone have the tire size for replacement fronts for the Carrera C7R Corvettes? They make a great matched set of cars for racing, but my fronts are starting to go bad. I already have PGs on the rears. As was mentioned earlier, a harder compound might be a good idea for fronts, though.

:text-thankyouyellow:

Carrera C7R fronts take PGT-19094LMXD... they fit most of the recent GT3 releases.... Ford GT, Mercedes AMG, BMW Z4's, 997's, 458's... everyone on the list below stocks this size too...

Awesome, thank you Paul. Love your tires!

Hi could anyone tell me what size PG tyre would fit the fronts for Carrera Porsche 917k. The originals have disintegrated / melted.

Yes they do have tires for the front of the 917k. I use 0 grips

Hi Do you know the tyre size / model number. I haven't been able to find which ones to get.

Hope this comes thru...if not go to Carrera Slots website and go to (132/124 parts) and click on (1/32 pit stop) and go down thru there and you will see what I’m talking about if this link doesn’t work:

Hi,
