Hi guys, haven't been on in a while. I'm building my 966 model, but I have no tires. I need some 4" diameter tires with the right kind of tread. Do you all know where I could get some? The wedico 966 tires look about right, but I don't know how to buy them separately.

Thanks!

This one will probably be best (if you don't mind the tire tread been a little different) for your size.

I know this shop has a big variety of tires. I've never bought anything from them and to be perfectly honest I'm not sure if they even sell to buyers from the U.S.

Wow, thank you all so much! I would like more options but I guess I have to google better

Thanks! Quick question though, how many tires do I get when I order them? Is it just 1 per purchase? Sorry if it's a noob question, but I'm sort of new to this.

For that particular seller, the price is per one single tire.

And don't worry about asking question, even the more seasoned guy in the hobby makes purchase mistake sometimes by not finding out what he or she is actually buying first.

Ok, I think I (after much hassle and searching) found a tire that is the perfect dimensions for my model, but I don't know how to order it or the price it is. And it would be great if I could find new or even used ones on eBay because I don't want to order internationally if I don't have to.

If anybody has any, or knows somewhere else I could buy it or the official name of the tires, that would be appriciated

I ordered these tires for a project I'm working on. Quality not bad for the price asked.
Take a look at these.

Yeah, I've looked at those. They're a little to big for my loader cause I screwed up the meausrements and scaling but thanks anyway! (:

RC machines is nice to deal with , email them with any questions and what you want with address . I don't understand this fear of ordering from over seas :confused:

Ya see; common sense. I didn't think to email them. Geez! Btw, your 990 is awesome!

Well, I emailed them, but I haven't heard back for a while. What do I do?

Email them again. They must have overlooked it?

Did you check your spam filter folder?

I've that happen where a reply from an overseas company might ends up there.
