- With thanks to Marwan who has been helping us all in the vintage community for a long many years now with his reproduction lexan bodies, decal sheets and his vintage Kyosho tyres. In this video I place an order and receive a bunch of great items.
Please contact Marwan directly via his website-

Been using Marwan for many years. He's been fantastic for some of us Kyosho vintage guys.
That's fantastic. Precisely why I offered to help get word out to more of us vintage enthusiasts who may not be aware, plus Marwan now makes the OT-66 front tyres which is awesome
Love Marwan. They need to make square spike for us now.
Thank you Keith. I'm hoping we get him more interest from customers and he takes us up on making the square blocks
Great work Jason would love to see Marwan branch out into other vintage tyre's. Some great companies like Fan R/c and so on. We need to go back to what vintage really is. Brushed motors small bore shocks. What we have now is semi vintage.
I agree. It would be great to see the numbers who make it along to vintage events adopt the old gear but only time will tell
That’s great news! Hope more tyres get reproduced.
The more people that Marwan hears from and he just may find a market and consider doing exactly this
I would definitely like to see him produce the square block tires.
I have bought several pairs of tires from him the shipping is incredible. I think the first order I made got to my house in New York from Kuwait in 8 days!! I can't get things that I ordered from one state away in 8 days😂
Oh dear lord please make the squares 🙏🙏🙏 great work Jason!!!!
Yes sir. How good would it be Wade. WE'd all buy many sets right off the bat.
Good stuff, Jason. Marwan makes excellent tyres! 👍
He sure does Mick and thank you. Glad to be hearing from you again mate.
This is epic. I had a look on the Marwan site after your last video . Brilliant he's making narrow fronts . Just need those square blocks for the toms and it's all good 👌
Absolutely. I hope the video and the links I am sharing on FB get him some more business and spurs him on to want to make the square blocks
@@Bormac073 let's hope so.i think he has to now 🤞
I need a few sets. I remember him from Tamiyaclub. Haven’t been on that site in years but used to post regularly. I’m SMOKE-DOG.
I purchased the optima mid and I like them but they were a hair narrower than original but other than that look amazing. Thankfully MARWAN is doing the vintage tires. Reasonable prices too. Great video sir.
Thanks Luke. I have have to check myself but I can say, I have been happy this far
Awsome, ive seen a few people use these on resto’s. Good to see a vid with some good close ups, the perfect thing for for resto’s and shelfers. Prob good on the track aswell in the right conditions. I loved the letter change on the tyres 😂 very good idea. Keep them lawyers at bay 😁
You're not wrong. I have always liked his stuff.
I've got no vintage (or new) Kyosho stuff any more, sadly. But this fellow does need spreading the word about as its one of them 'Use It Or Lose It' kind of things, I imagine. Good on ye for promoting it... To my untrained eye at least the things look bang on. Just the thing for Re-Res that didn't come with the correct tyres etc.
Nice video & Great looking products. Definitely need to check his website out now I have some Kyosho projects planned
I volunteered to help Marwan on his products. If more people know of them, he may expand his range.
Got some of Marwan's Optima (OT30) and Turbo Optima/Optima Mid (OT66) tyres to get the reres looking right and they make such a difference.
100%.
Without Marwan, we would have almost no vintage Kyosho buggy tyres.
His efforts are a godsend.
@@Bormac073 Those square blocks might be interesting for people wanting the right look for the upcoming '87 Mid Prototype too 👍🏼
My hopes also@@AndyMoulton .Also they would be a fantastic tyre tp run at the track or even on hard surfaces.
same here
Good video. Would be good to see Re-Re Tamiya tyres too. Oval Blocks can also really expensive.
Marwan specialises in Kyosho. Not sure if the Tamiya rere is necassary as Tamiya have rere'd so much
About to order mine for my Optima Mid. Been putting it off but I guess there’s no better time than now. Great vid Jason.
Thank you on the compliment.
Marwan has been doing us all a favour by taking on these tyres for many years now. I hope he can land more customers and even expand on his product range further.
placed an order a few days ago, OT-66 and its narrow version. It would be great if Marwan reproduces the block tires , both front and rear.
100%
I totally agree with you Jason these should be raced or used stock that's the point to relive the special golden era and experience these cars as they were in all their glory days!
Fantastic quality tyres too! I always loved the Optima tyres with those awesome big spikes! Great stuff mate!
Im sure a lot of people just use what ever they have but for those of us who are a little more interested in making our cars closer to original, Marwans tyres really help
He should do the front tires from the Kyosho Ultima II W-5071 , i have not seen them in years for sale ( KYOC6253 W-5071)
Excellent rundown of Marwan’s tires!
I always thought the SC84 and OT30 were the same tires
Just a small question mark regarding the Scorpion front tires, the original vintage size would be 1.9” and not 2.0”. But seeing as they use the same tires for both the rere Scorpion and the Ultima maybe that was changed… 🤔
I'll need to check on this myself. Thank you.
Thank you for taking the time to show these off. Ive always wondered how good these tyres actually are for resto projects.
EDIT. What are Marwan bodies like for accuracy and quality Jason?
You're welcome. It's been a long time since I have needed a Kyosho body as I bought all of mine years ago. They always looked high quality
