LittleDrummerBoy Aka LDB Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 (edited) Does anyone know a retailer with a good selection? I have looked for weeks and some places have a few items but usually not much. Looking for wheels (modern style) but engines etc would be nice as well. Wheel and tire sets would be a big plus too.

MeatMan Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 I've asked this on occasion as well after seeing nice wheels on posts but I never get any replies. Are people not sharing this info? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the responses.Cody a few of the wheels you posted are wheels straight from kits or die casts . Others looked to be modified. Look at the drag kits for a good source. If you look at the Resin and after market section there is a list of people that make parts. It may be down the page farther.

MeatMan Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 There have been no new posts to the MN FB page, so unless they created a stand-alone web site I'd say no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleDrummerBoy Aka LDB Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 Havent had much luck on shapeways, and 50k items pop up when searching 1/25 drag wheels. I have been looking at some slot car drag wheels and this may be a viable option. The wheels would need worked a little to work correctly. Has anyone had success with these? Pro track has some nice looking wheels at decent prices. However they would need fitted with tires and may need some work on the backside of the wheels to be adapted to a model car. They are also 1/24 scale but I know they often use model bodies on slot cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
