Status: offline 		All use the same size wheel/tires. GRP Gandini tires are pretty good, I am using there DTM line now with good results. Just look on tower hobbies for sedan wheels and you have many to choose from, Just check that they are rear tires or 30mm wide, with around 35 shore rating. The higher the shore rating, the harder the tire. The harder the tire the longer it lasts, but grips less than softer tires. 35 shore is fairly soft so should grip well, but wear out a lot faster than 40 or 45 shore.
