Old school Porsche wheels
Hey guys,
I've been looking for a set of Fuch wheels and haven't had much luck. Does anyone know of an aftermarket source for this type of wheel? I've seen them packaged with a few Fujimi 911's and the Tamiya Flatnose Snap-Loc, but they're either hard to come by or a little pricey. Also, since they would going on a '66 Beetle, the deep-dish style from the Turbos would be a bit difficult. Any suggestions? Here's the type of wheel I'm looking for for those of you not familiar: http://www.hlj.com/product/TAM24075 http://www.hlj.com/product/FUJ08208 |

Hey,
Which beetle kit are you using? B/c one of the older issue beetles has the fuchs in them. I might have them. I'll check for you. Frank X. |

I have a set out of a revell 911 cab kit, a revell beetle set as well.
A fellow club member bought some resin cast ones, though I don't know where from. I'll ask if he shows at tonights meeting.

Re: Old school Porsche wheels
The Fuch rims suits perfectly the beetle, especially if you a do a German look.
They are not produced as aftermarket parts, if anyone found resin wheels, they are certainly home-made copies. I have a few sets, all found in Tamiya and Revell kits, and are supposed to go on some of my projects. The best would be to trade with the people posting here, if it doesn't work with them ,contact me. But I know Verminator is a very good trader
