New wheels for the Revell Porsche 918 Spyder
Plamoz did some awsome wheels for the BMW i8 and Corvette C6 60th anniversary, and now they fixed what Revell did wrong:
You can get a set from www.plamoz.com/ www.thescalemodeler.com/

Re: New wheels for the Revell Porsche 918 Spyder
You can get them from the website listed in the previous post. These wheels are awesome! I got the set for the BMW i8, and they are super clean castings, highly detailed, and with an ingenious method of fitting to the Revell tires to fix the size issue. Highly recommended.

Re: New wheels for the Revell Porsche 918 Spyder
They fit the kit tires. For unexplained reasons, Revell made the inner lip of their wheels much larger than the outer lip, to hold the tire in place perhaps. Turn the tire over and the new wheel fits that side of the tire perfectly.
Here is what the inner part of the tire looks like: Yes, Revell gave me 3 rear tires and one front tire in my 918...they never cease to amaze me at how sloppy they can be.
