Tamiya 35295/25162 have link and length type tracks and are designed to be used with 9 tooth sprocket.
You will need late type tracks,like the ones that come with the Mig ammo Tiger."kgs 73/800/152 type"

No. Double link tracks require the nine-tooth sprocket.

Hobby Boss offers a set of very inexpensive late King Tiger tracks. Old school, not workable, but under ten bucks. Designed to fit the Tamiya kit (and includes extra teeth to turn the kit's nine-tooth sprocket into an 18-tooth version). No guarantee they will fit another company's drive sprocket, of course.
