Work Emotion XD9 wheels
Hey guys, i did a search but could not find any threads about this wheel.
does anyone know if there is a manufacturer that makes xd9's in 1/24 scale? Or does anyone know a car kit that includes these rims? Or another 9 spoke wheel that looks similar? Chasing these for a project, cheers

Re: Work Emotion XD9 wheels
I couldn't find any 9-spoke wheel from Fujimi or Aoshima current offerings, but Aoshima used to sell SA-70, which is a 9-spoke design. The wheel is not deep enough for both the front and rear of your application, but you can wrap the wheel with a strip of styrene to increase the indentation easily.
I found a few pictures of the actual wheel part online: http://www.geocities.jp/kerottioffice/veilside.html

Re: Work Emotion XD9 wheels
I believe nobody made a cast of one of resemblance to the XD-9s. Those are really nice rims btw. I almost ended up buying one for my car but chickened out at the last minute. The SA-70 from WedsSports is completely different. The XD-9 has some lip where the SA-70 does not. The only similarity is that they're both a 9 spoke wheel.

Re: Work Emotion XD9 wheels
I thought by now they would have made and xd-9 as its been popular in the drift scene for a few years now. Shame that nobody has made one yet. Those weds sa-70 look about the closest i've seen out of the aftermarket wheels, would definately give them a crack if i could find them, but i have a feeling they would be like 19s or 20s by the time u add the dish. Bit too big for small japanese cars haha.
