New Paul Gage Tires

[HomeRacingWorld]

Few new sizes are out now.









Tested them all the past couple days. Excellent fit and performance as you would expect.

Well done!

Yeah you guys converted me. I am starting to like these tires. I just wish he had a web site. I don't do ebay.

That's where I been getting them. If there is a size I need and they don't have. Then I'm screwed.

Is there a big difference between the Lola T70 tire and the Classic tires I've been using?

[Fast Co.]

Great tires!

Slightly wider is all.

SCC is always updating to new sizes.

LEB Hobbies and Carrera Slots also carry them.

One thing to try and remember is that one size of these tires can fit many wheels with a little stretching.

Example:



The 22125 tire shown above fits the 17 wheel but also fits the smaller 15 size wheels. It just stretches over and just need to true a little.

Once you start working with his tires, you will get to know what fits what pretty fast.

Same 22125 tire on 15x8.

Paul's tires are great. They true easily, wear well, can be stretched to fit a number of different wheel sizes and grip like a gorilla. What more can anyone want from a tire?

Hi Guys, thanks Harry, just wanted to add that the LM series has a larger (13mm) unmounted diameter... the PGT-20125LM is 2mm larger than the PGT-20125. However, if you mount them both on a 17x10 they will be the same diameter. Why you ask, because 17x10 is getting small by comparison to the new wheels been used on modern LM & GT cars. It won't be long before we have 18x10 and even 19's. The current series (PGT Classics?) of tires with 11mm inner bore are just too small to make the stretch and there is a performance drop off after a certain point of elongation. I have found that the PGT-20105LM on a 17x8 yields superior performance than either the PGT-20105 or the XPG-20105.

Another benefit of needing less stretch is they mount much truer on RTR plastic wheels.

The original size ranges won't change because there are tons of slot cars with 13" to 15" scaled wheels. The LM's are purposed for the larger Grp 5 and modern DTM and LeMans cars using 19" to 24" wheels...

In particular, these sizes will yield superior performance on all alloy wheels with a bead diameter greater than 13.5mm....

I'll try and add some pics later...

Thank you Paul for taking the time to chime in and provide valuable information.

SCC has these tires soon to arrive.

SCC Canada just had them come in.

I really like how our modern aftermarket tire selections now include realistic sidewall profiles rather than the slab sides that we were subjected to in the past. I never was a fan of slap sided tires. Thanks Paul for your great selection of tires.
Z Best,

Just a quick update - SCC received our PG tire order today. We now have most 1:32 PGT and XPG tires in stock including the new LM series.

:D

Dickie,it's been a while.What is the LM Series? What cars are allowed, chassis, motors , what years does it include?? You know you've piqued my interest :bow-blue: :bow-blue: :bow-blue:

[HomeRacingWorld]

It's a new line of tires from Paul Gage, not a race series sir.
