Scale 10" rims

Postby Dogsbody » Sun Jan 13, 2019 6:37 pm

Not positive this is the place to ask but I'm having a chassis done for a Scalextric classic Mini and I want to (have to) keep the stock sized wheels and not hog out the fenders. All I seem to find out there are 14" aluminium wheels. Anyone out there know where I can find some 10" ? They have to be aluminium and fit on regular 3/32 Slot It axles. Thanks!

I think I use 1/43 wheels on one of my resin bodies. I don’t remember the name Ranch something. Ask around the 1/43 forum.

Contact Cloverleaf. They have 10,8.7 and maybe 6 mm insert wheels. Tires to fit!

My 1959 Morris Mini Minor had 10" wheels. I had to get then from Morris Garage.
Scalextric sold a Morris Mini Minor a while ago.

I did see RS slots, in the UK, showing scale 10 inch alloy rims, tires and inserts for 3/32 axles on Facebook.
These were intended for Mini use.

I checked their website but dont see them otherwise I would have put a link up.

Colin who runs the business is friendly and would apreciate any contact.

Tell him I sent you.

One of the guy's was just working on the new one that just came out. He put our CBD 14x6 om it with Qiick Slicks CB07 on it. I am almost positive on the tires the wheels are correct. He didn't have to remove any material. He also used the CG 14MM mini lite insert.
