Hi, Can anyone tell me where I can purchase 1/24 scale after-market alloy wheels and tyres from? I am in the UK so it would either have to be a UK supplier or one that is happy (and reasonably priced) to send them to the UK. The more links you can give me, the better as I'm trying to find a few specific looking wheels. Many thanks guys.........Jay

Thanks very much for your help. Unfortunately I can't find what I'm looking for on either of these.
I am looking for a set of 18" deep dish flat five spokes which I plan to fit to a 1980's 911 turbo. |

Re: 1/24 after market wheels
If you can't find them on Hobby Link Japan, then good luck! They have (pretty much) everything made in Japan and that's (pretty much) the only place they make aftermarket rims. Are you sure you've found them all there? HLJ has a funny search system that if you're new to the site, you might not get everything you need.

OK this is the sort of thing that I'm after. I've seen loads of pictures of this kind of wheel but I just can't find anyone who has a set! |

Re: 1/24 after market wheels
try looking for the 80s custom hilux truck. THey come with Racing Hart C5's, which look very similar to the rims you're looking for. But the price of the kit is pretty expensive with shipping and all. Around mid to high 20's or low 30's.

Your pic looks like Cromodora 'Daytonas', like what Ferrari used to have on the 365 GTB. Look around for an older Ferrari kit for parts, you are bound to come up with some, although perhaps not in 18" scale.

Wheels on that lower pic are from Ferrari F40, not Daytona. You can find them in Tamiya or Fujimi F40 kits.
