Sorry, no sprewell rims exist in model scale, not as far as I know of anyway. Doesn't mean you can't try!

For those who don't know waht these rims are, they're basically two part rims and the outer rim face is on a hub so it keeps spinning even after you stop completely, from the momentum of the wheels. Totally useless as far as real life application goes but a good way to show you've got lots of cash in your pocket and have nowhere to spend it..

There's a 1/18 scale Escalade with rims like those on them, from Scale 18.

those rims are for bling bling SUV's only. they're so freaking heavy and ugly that if someone put them on a performance car, i would have a fit.

For those of you who say they are ugly, shame on you. My fellow associate got those installed in his 02 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited and they look extremly nice. They are even better at night when the light hits the chrome and gives you an illusion that his Jeep is peeling away.

Anyways, I thought i would comment on this. I don't know how much he paid for them or the tires but i know it must have been around the price of those crappy civics
