Reply to "Williams traction tires"

I've seen that before, I pasted an Excel file into my post so that's what's causing it.

JAG...not sure I understand your query. Do you have wheels that are 39mm diameter AND 2mm wide?

I've had a couple where the MTH tire is wider than the width of the groove in the wheel. I found that, once I get the tire on and up against one side of the groove, I can turn the engine over and while running it take a single-sided razor blade and cut off the extra material. Press lightly at first until you're sure of the cut and that it's straight, then press down until the blade cuts thru. It's very easy to do and quick.

If anyone knows of an error in my chart let me know so I can fix it. I've only replaced a few so far but they seemed to work. Last one was on my Williams brass J. So far the only diesel I've had to replace tires on was my oldest one, RailKing RS3 from a 2001 catalog and that was a few months ago.
