That is exactly what I am looking for! I was googling for them though, and I can`t find anyone who has these. Where did you get them from?

Jim Littiken at Micro Nitro makes them in machined aluminum. http://www.micronitr...et/top fuel.htm

They look really nice Ben, but are unfortunately over my budget.
Thanks.

They're not resin but most guys I know are using the Pro Track slot car wheels.  I get mine from Fast Eddie's House of Speed

Here's a selection of the Pro Track wheels, mounted with various kit tires.  They come with foam slot car tires, which must be removed, and the rears are very deep dish and need to be modified.  No biggie on that - a minute with a razor saw does the trick.

Thanks Mark. They actually look really good. Are they plastic? Thanks for taking the time to post them. I think I might give them a try.

[Mark Brown]

No, they're aluminum, which is a real bonus, because, as you know, nothing looks more like an aluminum wheel than an aluminum wheel.  Another cool thing they have is separate rear beadlocks in different colors. Not only do they look right but they also serve to cover up any sawmarks from "un-deepening" the wheels.

 

Here's another shot of my first order from Fast Eddies - you can see the separate beadlocks.

would these be the fronts?  and similar to a top fuel dragster front wheel?

[Jakezilla bowling]

Like the rims need to get some

[raildogg]
