Can you help me find these wheels

Does anybody know of any aftermarket wheels like the ones used on the Ford GT40?



I plan to put them on my Lotus Seven, which I may paint like the Gulf race cars.

Thanks

I doubt these are remoteley close, but they did remind me of those in your pic.

They are listed at a whopping $2.99!!
They are an old fujimi set. So if you were looking for smallish wheels, they should be a perfect fit on the 7.

Re: Can you help me find these wheels

this kit seems to have the wheels, and tires that you are looking for
here on ebay

I'm sure there is SOMEONE out there making either a repop of those wheels or someone here on A/F that would help you out. if someone were to send me one of the front and back wheel and tire I'd be happy to cast it for you. I too would like to get a set for some vintage racers I'll never build...haha

I was looking and Le Mans Miniatures make two sets of wheels for the Ford GT40, but I can't find any pictures of these wheels. If anyone has them could they show me a picture of them so that I know whether I'm ordering the right thing. If not I'll go with one of my other ideas. Thanks

There you are, in resin, the BRM wheels used by MkII GT40's. Mini Exotics is one of the top names in American detail parts, so you can definitely trust their stuff.
