What wheels and tyres would you like to see?

Once again i'm looking into the possibility of getting some 1/24 wheels and tyres made 18-19" minimum of course:D. I have my own suggestions - see pics of Speedstar Integral GT1 and Racinghart M5 below.

What would you guys suggest i should consider and what tyres should be made. Please post pics if poss and stick to the Jap/Tuner/Import theme;)

What are they called?

OZ Superleggeras

Those are the OZ Forged Supperleggras

Looks like I was a little late...lol...:D

Oh, and jay would worship you for doing these...

Volk GT-N
Volk SE37K
Volk GT-C
Volk CE28N
Rays Engineering Gram Lights
Blitz Technospeed Z2
Advan Generation 2's
and of course, more Advan RG's, RS Watanabe's and Blitz Technospeed Z1's :D

This is ADVAN KREUZER Series V in 19"

for tires it doesn't matter to me, maybe P7000 who come with the aos 19" rims;)

yea, some ADVAN RG in accurate 18" will be nice too:p

We need more 7-spoke wheels anyways!! :D

Edit: we need more variety of racing slicks, too. ;)

And how about some of these Speedlines ;)

:D HeHe.....Hi Chris :D

i think the m5 are the best because i just like that type of rim i have a set that are similar to the in real life mine are konigs though
well cya

Looks like Chris beat me to it. I was considering making rims and tires at work on the 3d printer when I find some spare time and get one of the guys to help me. Maybe in a few months time. :( Good luck to you Chris! I'm hoping to purchase a few SAS items as soon as I get around to modeling the particular available kits.

HELL YEAH!! god dammit!! I hate the size of the wheels made by Fujimi...so out of scale...
my taste: WATANABES!! and MORE BBS!!

i found some that look similar to the m5 at model expresss you might try there

I typically would like to see the wheels most of you have mentioned, but I would really love to see a knock off of the originals: Davin Wheels spinning wheels.
Davin Web Page (http://www.davinwheels.com/2003/index.html)

These arent typically my thing, but they would be sweet.

i like his idea:silly2:

How about some BBS LM's on some Advan A048's?

Here are some Volk Racing Rays Engineering Bronze TE37's, i would really like them to make. I have been looking all over the web for these but they dont make them, i have only seen the white ones. It would be better if they make the Bronze TE37's w/ a Chrome LIP.

you're THAT lazy that you can't even buy some bronze spray paint?? that's all it takes, you don't need someone to make a whole new wheel.

i like the BBS LM idea...

I'd like to see 19inch Volk Racing TE37's (the ones with the spokes going in towards the center)

Hell YEAH!!! The Superleggeras!

Ok, I know they aren't Tuner/ricer/JDM stuff, but if you make THESE wheels I can sell 100 a month for you for the next year!!
FISKE BABY!!

Maybe these, Lowenhart LR-5's 20"
http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/594519lr5_06.jpg


I hope you use one of these designs. Please. :)

I was thinking about some 19" TE37's too i.e. the wider ones with the spokes going inwards as previously mentioned.

Tell me more, i won't disregard all non-rice ideas Russ:finger: :D :D

Care to elaborate?

Fujimi already makes BBS LMs in 18 inches, just thought to let you know.

What would really be cool would be to have aluminum sleeves to slip rims into to create a deepdish look and to increase the diameter, like Pegasus Hobbies sells. Would finally give us all something to do if we could turn those stinky 17" Fujimi wheels into 18 or 19" deep dish wheels. :)

Interesting idea, i will look into this! So your saying the entire wheel should slot into a wider ring. This could easily be made from turned aluminium.

How about this... :)

Yeah, Walter had these ones from Pegasus on his S2000, I believe they were made for F1 wheels. I think the in-scale diametered is 23". :eek:

I thought he had that made himself, just the centre from Pegasus????

I like these twoo a lot:

Borbet Design M, from 17" to 19"
http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/414625xavhuy-borbetm.jpg

Borbet Design VS, 18" and 19"
http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/474619xavhuy-borbetvs.jpg

Borbet is a german manufacturer but these could be put on a "rice" car.
My 2 cents.

Deedlit

The rim and the sleeve are both from Pegasus; he sent me 2 sets of them:)

As a McLaren man/fan I just have to choose Enkei's :cool:

please these RPM2's in 18":

http://www.enkei.com/images/6c_6.jpg

Otherwise, the Superleggera's or Borbet M's will do, thank you.

Will look cool under one of my Benz's. :D

Very good idea! :D

How about some 19" Technospeed Z-1s?! I would love to stuff a set or three under some of my Skyline projects lined up!:D

As long as they are 19 inch -20 inch deep dish I doon't mind, I hate all these 17 and 18 inch wheels.

it will be sweet if you could make set of 22 or 23 inch rims.. like bling bling style..

import pipz how could you forget the RO_JA rims??!?

RO_JA formula 5 in 18"/19"

Dont ask me, I ain't making them!!!:D

I'll be commissioning a model making company to do them if their quotes are good. They do alot of work for countless 1/43 kit manufacturers and their quality is superb!

That would be great, cmon people start postin pics of tires aswell!

Any chance of these ones...same as whats on my car :) :) :)

Ok, I'm old..... What the hell does "bling-bling" mean??

To build on the rims from pegasus idea, I use common thin-wall plumbing tubing (copper) for many wheel rims and plate them. I then use centers from most any wheel I like. All you need is a tubing cutter for sizing. A whole lot cheaper than the pegasus pieces and you'll pay for the plating equipment if you skip buying 6 sets of pegasus' rims. Still use the tires though!

Chrome 17" IROC rims!!! Like on my car!
http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/301758IROCsigcopy.jpg

Yeah, I know.... no interest in these...:D

Big Chrome Rims that are ment for show only. They usually weigh A LOT! Really only ment for trucks and VIP cars in my inopinion.
