Fujimi needs to get off the dime and do some modern (2003) wheel sets. How about some RO_JAs (take your pick), Motegi FF-5s, and the like? And maybe some up to date tires like Toyo Proxes T1-S and Advan Neovas?

I hope Tamiya does the RX-8. I'll see how bad my Fujimi is when I get it soon; the buildup pictured here wasn't detailed very well to really know how bad the lamp areas are. The NSX is much better than the Subaru, but it does have a few fit issues, as Veyron's photos showed...but proves there's more than one team working on their models, the Subaru team must have been junior high interns.
As for Fujimi doing more modern wheels, I constantly
on why they keep doing undersized rims. Aoshima is better usually, but their motto must be "make half the quantity the market desires, and make only one production run per year so the customers will buy full kits w/the wheels vs. just the wheelsets"..
Fujimi undersizes the rims in all their models, probably so you'll try to rectify it by purchasing their accessory wheels...
I'm anxious to see what XS Tuning is up to; their 17's are fantastic but they really need to concentrate on larger sizes...fast. These kinds of wheel kits blow away the Japanese products. Amazing for that to happen these days
