Rims question

Hello, Im new here and Ive been lurking for a while now and I am amazed on the rims your cars have. Where do you all get your tuner rims from. I have been reading that fujimi kits have tuner wheels, but I would like to know how to get them and just them by themselves. I ve been looking around on the forum here and I have not been so lucky with my searches. Ive been working on the revell-monogram Datsun 510 and Im trying to get some alternatives with wheels to put on it. It is colored the same blue as on the box and has bright red interior with black seats. Oh, you all do very great work on your models.

Re: Rims question

Welcome.
If you read the FAQ, there are several links to online stores which sell rims for model cars.

Those are the stores most of us buy our rims for out projects from.

You can find a good scanner for around 40-50 bucks if you look around.
