This is the matching tire #3483 that fits the LEGO® 3482 hub, both of which are no longer in production. I made this primarily on request, but also just because modelling it was fun. The Blender source file is included for those who want to know how I model something like this.
This was modeled from the actual part by measuring and eyeballing, so don't use this as a reference for the exact measurements of the real part. However, my test print fits pretty nicely. I also included the mysterious asymmetrically positioned inner ring like in the original part, if anyone has a clue why this is there, I'd like to know!
Obviously, this must be printed in a flexible filament to be of any use. I printed it in rigid.ink flexible PLA which is a bit too stiff for the task. Although it is possible to fit the tire around the rim, it doesn't have much grip. NinjaFlex or a soft TPU would be a much better choice (but I don't have any at the moment).
Disclaimer: this is offered as a replacement part for personal use only and is not endorsed by the LEGO® company. It is not to be sold for profit, i.e. if you print it for someone else, you may only charge production costs.
