'57 Bel Air rims & tires
Hello,
I got this kit  but I want to build it as a 'normal' version, not a custom one with those slicks and five-arms rims... Anyone know where can I get a standard set of rims & tires for that?? or somebody have them in their spare box?? Víctor |

Re: '57 Bel Air rims & tires
My suggestion would be try the classified section.
There are a fair few '57 bel-air kits around. So just keep hunting through your local hobby shop. peace, WIDE

I have a set from the early metal axle version if that will help.
I built my '57 without any wheels!

You'd have been better off starting with the stock version of the kit. That kit has a custom four-link rear suspension w/coilovers, mini-tubs, fuel cell in the trunk, and a big block 454 complete with big honking Holley carb and 700-R4 transmission.
It's about as far from stock as you could get.
