Military wheels ??

[sassgrunt]

Tim, I tried to send a PM, but maybe it never got through. There is a large Lego tire called a 24 x 43 (part number 3740) that looks very much like a WW2 uni-directional tire. It is made out of a dense foam, and has a more squared cross-section than I would like it to have (I have not figured out a good way to round it off) but it will fit Tamiya semi-truck wheels if you cut out the 6 'stiffening ribs' that run around the outside of the wheel. You can find them on Evilbay, but you have to be patient - the people who sell them there try and charge $10 per tire, if they can get away with it. -Mike
