Pete132 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Does anyone know of a manufacturer for a front michelin mega x tyre? I know you can get the rears in a 1050 but I’m looking for a front wheel approx 46-48mm diameter. i think it was about a 750 wide tyre from memory. I’m nearly sure the matching set could be got back in the early 2000’s but I can’t find any now 😕 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPN Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Have a look at the Artisan 32 range, I know they have some with the Mega X Bib pattern, such as the 1050 you refer to. https://www.artisan32.com/fr/101-1-roues 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete132 Posted March 1 Author Share Posted March 1 No these are still a little to small diameter for me . . . . . . . . . But they might actually work well for another job I have so thanks for that 😉 I know well I had pictures saved on my old computer that ain’t around anymore! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Joe Dewar Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 How about these , also from farmmodels nl, 46.3 x 20.3, I reckon you'll struggle to find Michelin's anywhere,rear's maybe, but fronts I doubt. https://www.farmmodels.nl/Trekker-(vooras)-Banden-ZONDER-velgen-Ø-46.7-mm-(kopie-fendt-718-Siku)-1:32-04271- Regards Joe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete132 Posted March 1 Author Share Posted March 1 Thanks Joe, but similar to what I already have. Thinking alright that I might not be able to source these front wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Joe Dewar Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Do you know anybody in Ireland that might 3D print them for you, There are a few guys there that do 3D printing. Regards Joe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Joe Dewar Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 To be honest, Anybody without any 3D skills or even any CAD skills could buy a 3D printer, download any file from a 3D host site and print off anything they wanted, same as you might with an Ink Jet printer, Look through this guy's 3D printable tyres, they're all 1/25th scale, But just multiply the diameter by 25 then divide by 32 and you would have a 1/32nd scale tyre and all for €2.14 and you can use that file as often as you like, wheels are a bit more tricky, anyway look through these tyres, https://cults3d.com/en/users/CosplayItemsRock/3d-models 3D printers are evolveing fast these days, there are new ones out there now that can print 5 different colours at once, Resin printers are better than fdm's but they'll never be able to do that, You can get one of these for under £200 in kit form and a few £ more ready assembled. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/224949764327?itmmeta=01HQZDYTMN393N1XM9NEXJ52TP&hash=item34600d00e7%3Ag%3A8PAAAOSwWBJfo7uK&itmprp=enc%3AAQAIAAAA4EKS%2Bk0nrjRi0RfdmqDGIjPm4rylm5PHcDMMWXiUVsxnsBGaDLL7I82bwyRDturRQDmF2frWvUswFAccnHnq7Eg1dLJO0eGTaH%2BqkqW0LFeddHmXjiPA9LcwBrrPhJMENDH8Sukne0g3vqWbXZHxL9iiLmHAokwnxITuuxBGj0Lk%2BnN5fJksVHon1AzEHvHpAUpPbWy9LnYJ%2FQyOCnlsxWJFjU2FFdbACIh%2FeIkz2It3zYG4rq2%2FzuzB2O%2ByFR5bvfeIidpX0F2g5x04%2B707Hvflnzz%2Bfs%2F3NJmF15VQBaI1|tkp%3ABFBMtKr77b9j&LH_ItemCondition=1000 Hope this is of some interet to some folk out there.
