Sigh, if you read the FAQ you would've found out pretty easily.

Advan RG's are available on HLJ Mugen wheels are made by Aoshima, but both the wheel and the kits that have them are OOP. Tamiya's S2000 Hardtop comes with Mugen wheels. |

Re: Where do you buy aftermarket rims for model kits?
we all love the FAQ and you will too when you see all it has to offer . As malsheem pointed out:
VOLK GTPs: actually are available, but are becoming more rare as they are being D/Ced, Check with www.americansatco.com ADVAN RGs: some Aoshima kits have them, and Fujimi makes one, but it is a poor rendition of the wheels, not even close to the 17" claimed on the box. MUGEN Rims: see what malsheem said...most Mugen wheels were available at one time or another, but are becoming super rare as the kits that included them are becoming D/Ced

Play nice people. J boy, if you ask a vague and imprecise question you are likely to get a vague and imprecise answer

How was my question vague.. I asked what kind of rims I wanted, and in what scale, I dont think it can get any more direct and to the point than that.. |

I am searching for 1/24th scale volk gtp's, advan rg's and mugen rims. I have read through the FAQ, searched AF, Googled it and checked all the likely online sites (HLJ, R10, etc) with no success. Would anybody be able to suggest any other places to look? Thanks... blah, blah, blah. See the difference? Quote:
