WCM 1/4 sprint car tires and bands

[meowy84]

Hello. Looking for info on where to locate replacement tires and/or tire bands for the old 6-bolt rim WCM Sprint cars. I looked at Bishop tires but see tires for newer 4-bolt plastic tims but nothing that says it will fit the old aluminum WCM rims. Any ideas?

Are they Go-Kart wheels/tyres?

We could better tell if we could see the lug nuts, hubs and axels.

Ebay is your best bet. They pop up every once and awhile.
There's a website that deals with those cars,unfortunately can't remember the name. Ill se what I can find out later.

Try here for parts and info:

Thanks everyone. If you need to see the wheels just google WCM 1/4 sprint. These are both factory stock cars Made in USA. Nope, these aren't go-kart wheels, much smaller. Anyways what does it matter if you see lug nuts, hubs and axles? I'm looking for replacement tires not wheels, axles or hubs.

Thanks Striikar ebay might be my best shot. WCM doesn't have them either anymore since they changed their tire/wheel design to a plastic 4-bolt style. These cats date back to the 1990's and I think sometime in the last several years WCM changed the wheel/tire design on their new offerings.

No offence but best you properly introduce yourself, and include all the information in your initial question. I’ll leave it there.

Measure the space between all the wheel holes

My guess is that the folks on http://www.quarterscalelegends.com/bb/ will be your best resource.

Sorry if I came off a bit abrasive and for lack of a proper intro. The cars are currently in my storage unit so can't access at will for more pics. But anyways all I was asking is for I guess is any leads on a source of original type tires/tire bands for these cars. I haven't gotten to the axles yet lol. But they're pretty simple...solid axle driven by a v-belt pulley off the gear reduction/clutch assembly mounted to a Zenoah G2D 22.5ccm engine.

TDC, thanks! That looks like a good place to look, the whole site/forum is dedicated to 1/4.

Here's a few more pics of the cars for those who may be interested.
