I have never seen these MF10 wheels anywhere before. Who makes them and where can I buy them?

I know that Fujimi makes a Mugen Integra Type R, but the wheels on the box art are not MF10s.

Tamiya has them in the second version Honda S2000 kit #24245. These are male-type parts:

Pegasus Hobbies has just released a set of the 'same' wheels; female-type:

Thanks for the reply! I read the post on converting wheels from female to male but still don't understand the real difference in female/male rims. I have never built a plastic model before. I am thinking about putting the Mugen wheels on the following models:

Fujimi 99-00 Honda Civic Type R
Revell 99-00 Honda Civic Si

Would I need male or female rims for the models mentioned above and which, if any, of the Mugen wheels would be a perfect fit?

Also, can wheels be easily removed once installed on a model or are they glued into the kit?

The new rims look good (the M5's), but they're 17's....they are too small to fit their own brand of sleeves.... :screwy: :disappoin :mad:

Just what the world needs...more 17's.... :screwy: :disappoin :rolleyes: :banghead:

Mugen doesn't make them any bigger than 17". And I think we do need more realisticly scaled rims. But that's just me, and I guess if I wanted 18+ I'd complain too, there don't seem to be many out there. But yeah, I do agree about those deep dish sleeve things, why 23"? What the hell can you fit into that?
