Folks, I'm being lazy for not doing a search, but who has a wide selection of silicone? I have cars that range from SG+, magnatraction, a couple t-jet variations, life like and others. Looking to do some upgrading ;)

The companies listed below have tires for your various chassis. many have cars, parts, track, tools, etc as well as tires. Note that this not intended to be an all inclusive list. It's just folks I've dealt with and have book marked. I may have missed some great sources.

That's a great list Russ, but you missed a few. I have no idea who they could be, but they're probably feeling really left out.

In our box stock class the BSRT slip on silicones
have by far won the most races.

Excellent, thanks guys.

And how does silicon effect the 'drift' on non-magnetic cars?

You need to contour the edges and make the tire
look like a radial tire.The more you sand the edges
round the more the car will drift.

Supertires.com and Frank the racer, that is the same tires. Frank is cool and has supplied me tires for the Derby 24hr race. I think Scale Auto now sell Supertires also.

The slip on tires from Wizzard with a PVT code are the same tires as sold by Penn Valley hobby centre.
