Looking for specific wheels

[KWT]

Was wondering if anyone casts the American Racing Outlaw II wheels? and also a pro touring version of there heritage wheels?

I've seen both of those wheels in kits, but I can't remember which kits.  I'm sure we have experts on MCM that will be able to tell you exactly which kits have those wheels.  The wheel on the right looks like a stock wheel from many different kits.  I have  a ton of them.

[KWT]

Yeah I have several too... That more a less just for reference. The pro touring ones look just like them, but with a modern flair. Seen them on a 70 trans am a while back and though the mixture of vintage and modern was just dead sexy.

If you're looking for large-diameter versions of ARE Torq-Thrusts, some versions of the Revell snapper '63 Vette roadster have them.

And their snapper '57 Chevy has these large-diameter Halibrand-ish wheels, which I believe American actually makes.

Are those larger than 15"?  Several Monogram kits had wheels similar to the one on the left (mid-Eighties Monte Carlo, for example).  A 15" wheel in 1/24 scale could pass for a 16" wheel in 1/25.

A couple of Monogram Mopar kits had Magmum 500-style wheels, again those could pass for 16".  Monogram's interpretation of that wheel always looked a bit shallow and flat to me, which would work to your advantage here.

The Revell Foose version of the '67 Coronet R/T has a set of the big billet Magnum 500 style wheels. Maybe too big, they look to be 22 inch or larger.

I'd go measure them but I already traded the ones away I had. To big for anything even I build.

[KWT]

Yeah the ones on the left are 15 or 16. I had a set on a 85 cutlass that I used to own... wish I still did... and am wanting to capture that on an upcoming build.

 

The only pic I can find this morning of the "magnums" I can seem to find this morning doesnt really show them that well...

Those look more like Pontiac RallyII wheels than 500s. 

Is this the look youre going for?

The Rev/Mon Monte Carlo SS has some very similar, and there is a fellow on e-bay who cast the large dia. SS wheel. His castings are top shelf up there with the best. I have bought many different sets of his wheels including those.

I guess you may be right... That is the look some what.

Those are Casey Littman's. You guys should really ck his stuff out before you look anywhere else.

Monogram's Bad Actor '60 Chevy Sedan Delivery had the Outlaw style wheels.

Casey has some of the cleanest, easiest to use wheels that are out there. He is a fast shipper and all in all nice guy!

Casey`s wheels and parts are super clean! really nicely cast. Ive got a bunch of different wheel sets from him over the past few years, never been disapointed.

[Snake45]

It looks like the wheels in your pic are in the Revell Foose '67 Coronet (as Can-Con suggested):

[KWT]

Awesome! Thanks for all the info and ideas guys. I do appreciate it. I'm gonna check out ebay. Anybody got a set of those foose wheels they just can't stand? Lol
