Just got a used one of these
Powerslot Mitsubishis but it came with worn out low profile ribbed Scalextric? road tyres. Can anyone recommend a readily available offroad style replacement as per those in the pic' please?
Although definitely
Powerslot it does appear to have an SCX style chassis and hopefully therefore, Scalextric/SCX wheels.
Thanks for any help.

This was a replica of the never released Mitsubishi Pajero by SCX/Exin, designed in the early 90's and was destined to be part of the TT Series not the later SCX off road cars. I am not sure whether they used the same size wheels but there may be something suitable in the
Mitoos range of off road tyres.

Thanks. Just what I was looking for but thankfully AVG blocked the link as it was infected with a phishing virus.

I´m sorry to read this.
I´m in slot car forums for years, in fact I´m the organicer of SIP proxy and SRS Proxy , now on 11th Season ,on Home Racing World Forum and never something like that happened before.
I´m wondering if my own computer it´s infected, despite having a potent anti virus.
My only intention was to help.
My apologies.

That posted url didn't get flagged on my pc and checks as OK on phishing url checkers.

It wasn't the URL as such but as soon as I started to place the order it was red flagged with the phishing warning and blocked by my antivirus program.
I'm not in any way suggesting I was directed to the site with anything but the best intentions and my software may have raised a false flag, it's not unheard of - but better safe ......

I steer clear of obscure sell-it-all websites, stick with the well known sites.
