Just in time for the Tamiya re release 1/12 Datsun

Ive been quietly working on some 1/12 wheels for kits and these are my first in line. This is the first of the product line that will be coming out.

What are the measurements on those? Mainly the split 5 spoke and the minilites. What do they scale out to? ETA for availability?

I have had good luck with shapeways. I have a few things I have modeled in solidworks for my 1/12th scale projects. You model it, upload the file, and they print it for you...for a fee of course
