Default question about metal track

Does any one know that Matomart's metal track (matomart.com/prodview.php) will fit Asiatam's late tiger metal wheels or not?
I just get my late pattern wheels from Asiatam and find out that the HL's original metal early tracks do not fit my late wheels.

Negative. I have that set and went through a lot oftrouble getting tracks to fit the guidehorns. Mato tracks, which I have will not fit and will bind up causing wheels to come off and poosibly breaking things.
ETO armor has the tracks you need. They fit the Asiatam late wheels.

I got the new black painted ones from rctankwars.com which I believe are the mato ones and they fit better then the regular metal ones I got when I got the tank, I also have the late asiatam wheels and the metal hull, if you have the older metal drive and idlers you want to get the new ones that come with the bushings now.

Are you talking about this www.etoarmour.com/product_detail.php? This is the only one that I can find.

Yes, those are the ones I use on mine.It has the asiatam hull, road wheels 3:1 gear reduction and 480 motors powered by elmod. These tracks fit perfectly and do not bind up. Only thing I forgot to mention in the earlier post is I needed to change over to Tamiya sprockets due to a difference in the pitch. I am not sure if it was just mine or not but my sprockets did not work correctly.I purchased a set of Tiger 1 sprockets and installed them. No problems with this cat any more!

I'm looking for Tamiya tiger I sprockets.
Is this set I need? But, where I can find only the sprockets?

You have to get tamiya sprockets for the tracks to fit correctly.
