Wheel/Tire advice?

[aurfalien]

Hi,

Would any one happen to know where I can get this tire/wheel combo in 1/24" flavor?

Looks just right for an upcoming project.

Aoshima sells dozens of wheel/tire combos. They might have something similar. Fujimi also has some wheel/tire sets.

Hi,

They have tons for sure.  Would you happen to know the model if wheel pictured?  Or a vague approximation?  I'm not having much luck.

I don't know the original wheel specs but when I googled for "aoshima s parts wheel tire set" and looked at the images, I ran onto set #149. Looks pretty close.

Hi,

Thanks for that, I was looking at those.  Wheels are good, tires are too low profile for my race car.  Although I may end up buying a few things ot mae the look I'm after work.

Thanks for the reply.

Hi,

I've sorta went with a more classic race look, what do you think?

Seems like all the racers don't go above 18" and use a decent profile tire which makes sense to me.

 

 

However I did find a 19" which a good profile, not too low.

 

Then I also found this with a good prife as well as they also come with Potenza RE-01.  This is a hot wheel for sure!

I'm not a fan of black wheels in general, but the ones you found have a silver rim so they not bad.  As far as the NT-03 wheels go, I'm not too crazy about the extra web inside the rim.

Hey man, it is your model, do whatever you like.

Looks like these ones from Plamoz are prettyclose.

Or Pegasus Elites.

 

Either one could be widened with a set of of the right size sleeves.

Hi,

Thanks for the pic.

So I gave it some good research and bought these with there racing slicks option which has the tallest profile;

Hi,

BTW that Plamoz site is cool.

They've a lot of high end stuff, very nice.

There self adhesive velvet paper is intriguing.  I see it as an interior detail, very cool.
