Hi, this is my new project, a red RX7 from Revell. I have two sets of wheels for this car, but I hesitate to choose one of them. Give me your opinion.Thanks.

The RX7 with Allentes wheels:

I would take the allentes wheels (1st pic)
They seem to accentuate the racy look of the RX-7 !
Whyle the others just seem plain cruizing wheels (to me)

My two €cents.

PS. any comments on the Revell kit ? (engine, molding, parts... ??)

LOL, working on the same car. Well, actually is a Tamiya. Mines got Sparco NS-II's on it. I think you should put the first set on it.

I like the first set best. I used similar ones on my RX-7.

Keep us updated on your progress.

I think I'll put the Allentes on it. For information the car 'll be red (Italian Red from Tamiya) without wing, Brembo brakes, very low (the front is done), black tinted glasses. For the interior, I haven't yet idea.

In my opinion i believe that both the first and second sets look fairly nice so im at a stuck position so just go with what you like better if you cant choose search the net for some better ones
