Dub City Astro Van
Hey guys I just got a 1/24 Dub City Astro Van because they look cool and because they come with 2 sets of 20inch rims aka 'dubs' and some subs and amp. I plan on resin copying the audio stuff and one set of the rims but they are huge! I mean they look fine on the van but when mocked up with other 1/24 kits they are huge and Wide!! I know I can narrow the wheels but they seem to be about a 22" or 24" rim in 1/24 scale. Anyone else have experience putting Dub city rims on other cars?

I've used the so called 20" rims on a 71 chevelle model and they didn't even tuck in the wheelwells, Chevelle has huge wheelwells.
Those rims are more like 23" or so... I bought the 59 eldorado dubcity and its just ugly... i butchered it up and used the parts on other models...

1 inch...seriously? Cool...where'd you get them? I need a set of rims that are about that tall for my Revell Van. Its the only way i can get thin rubber and still clear the front air dam.
