I actually have a trailer that has rims that are an exact match with the Citicar.

Trailer tires are the simplest way to get new rubber for the c-cars.

Mine has Chevy Vega rims on it with matching wide tires. The only disadvantage is that you can't turn the steering all the way to one side, or the wheels rub!
