Help needed to find certain wheels

Hello everyone,
I'm looking to find the same wheels and tires that come in the Tamiya Toyota GT-One kit.
First I thought I'll order the sprue from the Toyota kit but than I saw that this sprue contains also the engine and the chassis + suspensions, or I do not need them.
Does anyone know if these wheels and tires can be found in another kit where they come on a separate sprue?

I suppose (after taking time to look through the Tamiya 1/24 models range) that there is no other Tamiya kit using the same wheels.
Any chance there is a similar wheel set from Fujimi or Aoshima?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Fujimi should have something similar.... Enkei RPF-1 (http://www.hlj.com/product/FUJ19230) six double spoke wheel.... unfortunately discontinued, but you can find it in a few a Fujimi's RE Amemiya RX-7 kits. I have a set and you might be able to convince me out of it if you can't find a set anywhere else.
Actually I think Aoshima might make a set as well, but can't seem to find it.

Hi,
Thanks for your help.
I've got the Fujimi's myself but those are too small and not exactly like the race OZ's.
I suppose there is no other plastic car kit that contains these wheels, or at least I didn't find any, so I'll probably see if I can get the Toyota ones from Tamiya.
Thanks again! :)
