Description

A pack of 4 tyres to suit Matchbox Lesney Ford Mustang 8e Autosteer. May also suit the same wheels on models 14d, 15d, 33c, 55d, 62c, 67b, 73c and possibly others

The inset in the picture shows that there are two types of wheels fitted to this model. The one on the left of the inset with the red cross is a one piece mould with a disk inset hub cap and it does not come apart. The one on the right of the inset is a tyre and rim which these tyres will replace. The difference is more obvious from the back of the wheel which you can see in the lower part of the inset image. The left hand model has an all black rear view of the single piece wheel while the right hand model has a silver rim and distinct black tyre.

The models are for display purposes only and are not for sale or included with this item. Individual tyres are also available as Y064 listed under Tyres->Matchbox.

Note that the plastic hubs are prone to shrinking over time and these tyres are made to fit hubs with some shrinkage. So they may be tight or loose depending on your hubs. Use a drop of super glue if loose and a piece of emery paper on the ID of the tyre if they are tight. Warm water also helps to heat the tyre and hub during fitting.
