I may have found something for you.
Go to Tamiyaclub and check out the falcon original tires.
The fronts look like a very close match ,and the rears have the same design as the 4-3 rows on the asso cars (holiday bug is 3-2). The knobs on the rear are smaller but have the same overal shape.

I have a set of 4, all nib, for you at 20$ plus shipping.
(Actually the set includes wheels crosspins, nuts , spacers and hubs.)

I recently found these Graupner tires, they are a perfect match, though probably as hard to find as old AE ones... BITD Graupner was the official Kyosho importer in Europe. Don't know which Kyosho model they come from.

Looks like they're from a Kyosho Hinterreifen...

Hi all! Kind of a false alarm. :oops: I guess it's good info to know anyway. I got the car and the tires are in pretty good shape. The fronts have a little fuzz on the outside edge but other than that they're pretty good. The rears have a little take off the spikes, but aren't toooo bad. I'm wondering if I can melt or trim a corner back on the spikes to get rid of that rounded concrete abuse look.

i have some original RC10 from tires and wheels.

one set of tires are used and does not match the number of ribs as the "box art tires" but i do also have some "box art" front tires that look new...but are a little dry from being so old.

I will be putting them on e-bay some time soon.
