12\" tyres query
Turbo Mini Forums

Hey guys,

I have a set of 12" Weller wheels for my mini project and I really want to fit them instead of my original minilites, as they are a 6" wide wheel instead of the standard 12x5 size. However, I am struggling to find any suitable tyres that will fit this width/diameter combo, can anyone help please? I hope someone still makes a tyre to fit these wheels as they look spot on and also suit my wheel arch style selection. Ideally, I need a tyre that's made for hillclimb/race/trackday use, but is road legal also.

Cheers
