1/24-1/25 Offset hub/wheelbacks
Lownslow replied to Lownslow's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
Yup its got a few uses i have one with an adjustable slider that can be turned horizontally and be used to center wheels on wheel wells. Cost is cheap, downside is im not printing any beyond what i personally use but the file is uploaded on Cults with a license to sell the prints and i keep it consistently updated. Rbmodelworks is currently selling several versions of this design -
I like lowered cars, sometimes i slam them, but both times i do i have to butcher the suspension which leads to issues like off center mounts or 3 wheels down, one up. I also started building more stockish rides but i always run into the problem with the ride heights being too high even for 1:1 factory stock. I figured i would 3d print my way out of it and help the hobby too because i know im not the only one with this problem. This basically is the same as a stock wheel back but with an offset mount that allows you to lower or slam a kit without butchering the suspension. Its obviously not realistic but some people just want to just build without the added headaches of trying to figure out how much to cut. The 59 shown is a demonstration of stock wheel backs and a 2mm offset wheel back which is what im going to run in the build itself because i want a nice low look custom but not slab deep to the pavement.

i honestly feel like Stellantis dropped the ball on not doing that with the last gen 300 -
Optioning out the AMT Chrysler 300c

its easy to make with the regular roof all i did was slide the pillar back and rescribe door lines and new interior panels -
Went to the paint store for clear hardner and noticed a premix section and sure enough two great colors at 5$ a bottle came home.

Optioning out the AMT Chrysler 300c
Lownslow replied to Lownslow's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
Pretty much hit the end of the projects with the widebody version i tried to just flare it but the fenders and the wheel arches just didnt look right so i went for full panel overlays. i like molded widebodies so these do require cutting and filling to look good -

Optioning out the AMT Chrysler 300c

These are their own parts, the body kits will be aimed for 24-26" wheel fitments since thats what i aim for on builds i figure someone would use these on a mild custom version -
Its weird this kit reissue didnt get any options despite there being a Rides version and being one of the most customized cars of the mid 2000s. Ive decided to scan it and make a bunch of parts for it mostly going for custom skirt kit and a widebody kit. Other stuff will be custom headlight buckets and grills. One of the things i decided was make some custom wheels for the oem tires that are direct fit for the kit
