I realise this is the Hornby section of YMR, but the same Qs is pitched at Vitrains diesels owners - I believe some of those are fitted with tyres.
Be glad to hear from colleagues on this one

Adrian, you maybe better off contacting Hornby direct.

I have two or three Lima class 60 diesels that I'm quite happy with (I do have the Hornby variant as well!).
The Lima driving bogies are fitted with a couple of tyres which aren't giving any trouble at the moment, but I like to think ahead ………………..
One source I located online seems quite expensive, so I was looking for alternatives - hence the posting on YMR
In pursuing the matter I have just recently come across East Kent Models, who seem to be able to supply parts for Hornby, Bachmann, ViTrains and Lima.
Quoting from their lists (obtainabale via email): "for Lima large wheel traction tyres see Vitrains section" and then in that section: "700328V class 37/47 traction tyres fit large Lima wheel"
I'll send for some tomorrow and report back on my findings!

However, as the subject is really Lima diesels, I put a mention in the following section ie "Other Producers"
Hope that's the way to do it Robert?
