Those tall motorcycle-type tires/wheels are 81.6X15's. Dave is looking for
the large wide tire/wheel combos, smaller than the MC types. I thought I
saw somewhere in the list that Todd had initiated a part->set lookup
feature, but now I don't see the reference. Did I actually see that, or
just dream it?
I know that the 8286 3-in-1 Car now on 1/2 price at S@H for $44.00 has 4 of
these wheels (and lots of other desirable parts) and the Indy Storm on sale
for $22 a few weeks ago has 4 on almost chrome wheels, but that's not the
cost you are looking for. Some sites like http://www.nugator.com
sell parts, or you can try ebay, but I haven't seen just what you are
looking for at either right now. Good hunting!
