Well i know there are a few methods of making deep dish wheels but after seeing hiroboys wicked rims and finaly got my new wheels i thought i would try out the method he uses!
Here is how i did it:
Got some junction produce rims:

The took the nismo rims fron the R32 Vspec II GT-R Tamiya kit and used the lip (seperate from rim) of the junction produce rims over the top.
I have not yet glued them or cut down the rear of the GT-R rims, i will also be painting the rim gold.
Here is the result so far!

I think it looks a whole lot better in real. :wink:

cool idea, the most slick looking wheel conversion yet i think, but why not just use the scara rims themselves?

Well i like these rims a whole lot more.
But what im going to do is not glue the dish onto the rim so i can still use them in the Sacara rims too.
I will be painting the wheel gold tonight.
Here is a better picture of the wheel's.

Those are awesome. You amaze me with your work. You've only built like 3 kits and you look like you've at least built like 100.
