Original rubber mats

Unfortunately my experience with pre war Meccano rubber tyres indicates that the hardening is permanent. 

I have found  that by warming the tyres at low heat they become flexible but on cooling they revert to hard again . 


Warming your mats in hot water may allow fitting but they will probably fail in use.
