How to make tires with silicone
What you see here is my first attempt at making tires. First off, I have to say it is very rewarding. Second, I believe it is a very economical way to go as long as you have more than say two cars to reshoe.
The best solution is pure rubber tires - the ones I make myself. I bought my supplies from Hong Ye Silicone (google it) for about $70. I made my first dozen molds using their HY-E25 silicone. It's a very simple A-B mix using equal amounts by volume of each. All went well in my mold making until I chose to use the Slot It silicone tires to make a large hub tire mold. You guessed it, the mold stuck to the tires. I should have known that making a silicone mold from a silicone tire would not be a good thing. For the remaining molds I used the original factory rubber tires. No release agent was required.
For the actual tires, I used Hong Ye silicone's HY-E642#. I added a few drops of So Strong red dye to the "B" part of the A-B mix to obtain my desired color. HY-E642# silicone is also a simple A-B mixing chemical that uses equal volumes of each. Of course, you can also use black dye for a more authentic look. I chose red to make it plain to me if the car had the homebrew or factory tires still on it. I also like the fact the red tires harken back to the old days when funny colored foam tires were par for the course. My homebrew tires are now even better than the Slot It S1 tires and stay that way lap after lap after lap. The difference being is that they do not collect dust after a few laps. They stay in top shape. Some folks drop a dab of CA glue on the wheel to help the tires stay in place but I have not had to do that yet.
