hedotwo Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 I had a 1:1 '93 STX and am happy there is an AMT kit of it, but the included rims aren't what mine had. The pic shows what I had (actually mine was black just like the pic). I know I'm probably going to end up using the kit rims but thought I'd ask first.

Plowboy Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 These are about as close as you're gonna get. Unfortunately, they're not directional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hedotwo Posted May 5 Author Share Posted May 5 (edited) What kit is the pic of Rog? I can't tell 😉.. shortbox F150? Edited May 5 by hedotwo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plowboy Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 The wheels are from the AMT F-150. I think they were in every issue. Was your full scale a long or short bed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hedotwo Posted May 5 Author Share Posted May 5 Long bed but not an extended cab. Salesman tried to talk me out of that cab and get the extended but I didn't listen. When winter came and I started wearing my heavy coat and misc it became pretty cramped. I remember the seats were really big and comfortable for a small truck. I'll see if I can locate a set of those wheels... thanks a bunch! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelson Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 I seem to remember them in Lindbergs 94' Jurrasic Park ford explorer,but they're 1/20 scale.🙁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 IIRC the most recent release of the AMT '57 Ford had similar optional wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks If you can find someone to 3D print them for you, I can design them and send the file to you. I can replicate the originals exactly.

deuces wild Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 I think the Revell '68 Vette kit has those also. 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hedotwo Posted May 8 Author Share Posted May 8 If anyone out there has the Maisto Explorer with the rims shown in the pics above could you measure the OD of the tire/rim combo and the OD of just the rim? Just wondering if they'd be too large for the 1/25 Ranger. Also, I just scanned ebay listings for Maisto Explorers (assuming those are the only ones offered with those rims) and found a few listings for complete diecasts. Not sure I want to pay for a complete model to rob the rims so I'm hoping either a junkyard offering comes up or better yet, just the rims.

Maindrian Pace Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 I don't have the measurements, but here they are in the AMT Firestone ATX tires. You need to enlarge the tire I.D. a little bit to get them there, but they do fit nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
