thundercrane,

When I visit the Jaydeez website, all I can find are 1:64 and 1:53 scale items. Can you point me to the 1:50 scale items?

I too am interested in obtaining 1:50 scale wheels and tires for a few projects.

Thanks!

If you are putting 1/53 wheels on a trailer that is going on a Sword you will see a differences. Maybe someone needs to make some 1:50 scale wheels and tires...Whistle Chuck...

I have used the Tonkin 1/53 scale tires they are good not that far off. It would be good to get some actual 1/ 50 tires and wheel though

The Tonkin Replicas SIGNATURE series wheels are bigger so they will be better with Conrad TWH etc than the Precision one. I used some of them for several trailers and the result is perfect

You can also put Joal tires on the Tonkin 1/53 chrome wheels(from the Signature Series). That makes the combo bigger. Conrad used to give extra wheels if you contacted them, I THINK. Roy Ferguson got some for me. But if you are looking for quantity, you will have a hard time. Tonkin used to sell those 1/53 tires directly to you. But it was like $2.00 per set. Surely would be nice if someone could make them on a large scale basis in 1/50. Probably no profit in that though. Good luck. CAW

WSI at least had sold spare of truck tires and wheels....mostly Euro styl.

It may have been a dealer that sells Lion, Tekno and WSI though, that sells these.

There is a guy on ebay, badgerlandmodels, he has FG 1/50 wheels sometimes. You can always email him and see.

Don Mills Models has a nice selection of 1/48 tires/ wheels very close to 1/50. They are reasonably priced.
