Get some wheels you like, there are so many different wheels available for models you should be able to find something.

Create a story about the car you want to build, then realize it.

Whose Supra is it?
What is their goal for the car?
How do they use it?
What have they done to it, and why?

If some of the more experienced modelers here could list some sites for us new people, or spit out a name of a company or two to google, I think that would solve the majority of the problem this guy has trying to find a custom wheel. For insperation, go to some Supra websites and look for pics of cars you like and then try to find a wheel to match that, if not an exact match, at least one that fits the sprit of the car you're building.

For browsing 1:1 wheels, I like this site:
http://www.wheelspecs.com/main/index.php

I don't think we've found a definitive list of wheels available in scale, much less a photo gallery to browse.

(but I bet some of our favorite wheel-hoarders could make a pretty good start. )

no wheels are really good for it you have to convert them to male. or female i forgot.

That's one of my secret formulas!!

[freakray]

There is a list of sites you can buy wheels from in the FAQ. It's at the top of the forum if you can't find it.

[m.c model master m]

is it for model cars

[Jay!]

Yes. This one:
AF Car Modeling Frequently Asked Questions [FAQ] - * Look here first! * ver2.0

Not the very top right one. That's a FAQ list for the whole site.

Well, you could always make the stock rims "deep-dish" (big offset) and paint the spokes the same color as the body, gold, or gunmetal.

Or.. you could always go with some Vold TE37's http://hobbyworld.aoshima-bk.co.jp/s..._code=FUJ19202

Or, my favorite (and a fav of many drifting fans.. ) the 3-spoke Advan Oni's. These look phukin dope when deep-dished and with spokes painted the body color. Just check out the HKS D1 Drift Car.
