Altezza type wheels?

I am looking for SSR GT1 1/24 rims to recreate my own car (1995 300X TT). These are apparently not available but the ones on several Fujumi Altezza kits look pretty close (see pic) -- 5 split spoke with an concave center. Does anyone know where I can get a set of these rims without having to buy an Altezza kit?

Thanks,

Tim

Where are you in the world, and do you know who your Fujimi distributor is? ;)

Those are the stock Altezza/IS200/IS300 wheels, IIRC. Best bet would be to order an extra set from Fujimi, if you can track them down.

Sounds good to me. :D

Find somebody who has that kit, and find out the part number of the wheels. Tell Fujimi that your kit didn't come with wheels and...well...you know the rest :D .

If in the odd occasion that somebody from Fujimi does read this, do not take it seriously.


To everybody else...ORDER AWAY!!! :finger:

where are you at? i got an extra set of wheels i can spare. pm me.

hey, i didnt know you could order parts from Fujimi directly...

Anybody outside Japan actually tried this?

Thanks for all the advice, everyone.

I am in the US -- didn't think of contacting Fujimi directly but I will try that. I wouldn't want to mislead them but if they would sell me the wheels separately...

Someone here may have an extra set for sale, or I can always just buy the Altezza kit.

why don't you read your thread again - you have been offered the wheels already ;)

Oop!!! Guys, Fujimi is a family bussiness and they don't speak english. Is written on the manager namecard. It's written as "I am very sorry. I do not speak english" :finger:

>> why don't you read your thread again - you have been offered the wheels already

I read it and got that the first time ;)

Thats why I said: 'Someone here may have an extra set for sale'

I have contacted them but have not heard back yet. Tend to count my chickens after they hatch.

My previous message was primarily a response and thank you to everyone who gave me advice on it.

ok, you have mail. just letting you know cause the pm thing don't always pop up.

Yep, I just checked and sent you another message.

Jason does have a set of the wheels he is willing to send me. Thanks!

As someone who is just getting back into modeling after a few decades off, I really appreciate it.
