I have been hearing good things about Ma's Resin's tires (and other casted stuff) but never seen anything until now. For those of you out there, like myself, that are wary about ordering from small casters, don't worry with Ma's. My package came well padded and the tires were bagged & sealed. And the tires... they are awesome! Made (in this case) from black "rubber" the tires' treads were sharp and clean with no pinholes or other defects in the sidewalls. They look and feel just like the tires that come in the original model kits. I will be ordering more tires soon! Their site: public.fotki.com/cnaindJohn

Oh, forgot to give sizes of the tires in case you are researching: Mickey Thompson Baja Claws: 35mm diameter, 10-11mm tread width, 12.5mm overall width, 16mm wheel hole scale sizes: 1/25: 34.4", 1/24:33.2"
Giant Puller's (D Cepek): 32mm diameter, 18mm tread, 22mm width, 15mm wheel scale sizes: 1/25: 31.5", 1/24:30.2"

Gang, This weekend I got my hands on some more of Ma's Resin's tires. All modeled after Super Swampers, all in black rubber (not resin), and all very clean casts: Interco Super Swamper IROKs (47mm tall - 46.3" in 1/25 and 44.4 in 1/24"): Interco Super Swamper Boggers (43mm tall - 42.3" in 1/25 and 40.6 in 1/24"): Interco TrXus (44mm tall - 43.4" in 1/25 and 41.6 in 1/24"): Of course I have added them to the "New" section of the tires database. Check it out... I have full size photos of each. www.magazinepublisher.com/models/tires/tires.html#newJohn

He told me he wasn't taking orders right now. I guess he's pretty swamped.
I wish one of the bigger resin outfits would produce tires like this. There really isn't anything else out there for nice 33-35" mud tires

I might start casting tires in resin and possibly rubber have to figure cost on rubber first
