It says end of April, which basically means May. I haven't seen anything regarding pre-orders on the major sites yet. I'm sure it'll pop up later this week. I just got the email note Sunday night, and now Aoshima's website has the info, too. So it's hot off the presses.

73superduty, yes, I am the same malsheem.

The response I got when I asked was that they spent lots of money on making the new wheels, so it wouldn't make sense for them not to sell them separately. So yes, they will, but they don't know when. My guess would be at the end of the year.

But they do release wheels in groups of 4, so I don't know what the other two might be; ones that haven't been sold outside of kits (like the 19" Gialla Jackhammer)? Or completely new ones?

Yeah...I was going to post that last night. I got both kits at 2:00am after a long night of working on my Supra.....cool lookin' wheels.

Yeah, I got the e-mail last night about them. I was hoping they'd ship today, but since I didn't see a charge on my credit card this afternoon, it doesn't look like they will ship until Monday. Nuts.

As soon as someone gets in their kits, please post some pics of the wheels. I'd like to see them. HW pics are too small.

Offtopic, but the R34 GT-R and Nismo R34 will be out on the 27th of this month.

[nis.k.a.]

Should I disclose how many Nismo R34 kits I'm getting?

Most of the reactions would be:

But I'm:

Is there any news about the release of these wheel sets?

[exhaust smoke]

Those are some gorgeous rims!! I hope Aoshima don't do the silly limited run thing, that was most annoying!

I haven't heard anything new on the separate release of these wheels, but I'm sure myself or someone else on the forum will post any new news that comes our way. For now, you'd have to buy the kits to get the wheels.
