Well for number one, are there any home depots or Lowes in the UK? if so, you can buy a short piece of pvc or abs and cut 4 pieces or watever for tires.

real drift cars use actual street tires
their is no special drift tire for actual cars
they use horsepower and torque to get them to slide

Talking about tires....

I rocked on down to the local Mitre 10 (biggest home depot store in Auckland), and they didn't have any piping that fits! The closest piping was about 3mm out each side!

The only way I could do it was to buy piping joints and cut them up, which would cost over 16 bucks. What a RIP.
