Tire chart and a pair of metric calipers.  You take the measurement of the rim diameter in mm, you look at the range for a tire chart that matches that diameter- or if an MTH engine- they are listed. https://mthtrains.com/sites/de...ire_Chart_020414.pdf

You then can buy bags of universal tires from MTH Parts and Sales using the number system.

Being the "Wander" set was a "General" engine, most likely it is DE0000027

Also, MTH has parts breakdowns- example General https://www.mthpartsandsales.c...lists/235?type=lists

and yes, for the General it lists DE0000027

If you are going to own MTH engines, I myself would begin familiarizing myself with the excellent resource that is MTH parts- not just for buying parts, but actual parts breakdowns, tips and other information https://www.mthpartsandsales.com/shop/documents

Thank you so much Vernon! Hugely helpful. I didn't realize that MTH even still sold parts. This is a great resource.
