Des:

There are a pair of options: One is cannibalizing a Dragon 1/18 scale vehicle. But those would be marginally undersize for a 1/15 vehicle.

The other option is one thats made in Germany, and sold by a number of retailers. If you're in Europe, Andreas Hafner of TruckModellSport carries an NDT tire, but the one flaw is the tire is square-profile, not round: Item Nr: 8066TR (Reifen & Felgen - Tires & Rims)

On the American side of the pond, Willy Loewer carries it: www.CustomRCmodels.com

Hope that helps ya out.
