Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 8163 Name: Blue Sprinter
* 		8163-1 (Inv) Blue Sprinter
110 Parts, 2009
Sets: Racers: Power Racers

* Delete 4 Part 58090 Black Tire 30.4 x 14 VR Solid

Comments from Submitter:
Set 8163 should include tires 30.4 x 14, but without the VR designation. The wheel (345837) does not work with the 30.4 x 14 VR tire (345841). The VR tire is slightly larger on the inside. I could not locate the correct tire without the VR designation on the Bricklink site. I took a picture if you want it for verification.

I bought one complete set (372824) and it was correct, but the extra tire I bought included the VR. That's how I discovered the problem.

This set has the correct tires in it. Although, the name of the tire is misleading
since the 58090 tire does not have the "VR" designation molded on it. I will
submit a change request to have the name of the tire updated.

Cheers,
Randy
