TruWires - Wire Wheels

[curt raitz]

As a modeler, I was frustrated on how poorly the front wire wheels for dragsters were made.

I came up with "miniscurtraitzing" quite a few years ago, just played off my name and it's been around for sometime. I presently offer the wheels in four sizes, one in 1/16th scale and three in 1/25th scale. The 1/16th scale wheel is 1.1" in diameter. The three 1/25th scale wheels are .790", .740" and .710" in diameter.At first I just offered the rims, but there was sufficient interest in adding tires as well. I include O-Rings as tires which can be used if you don't have the ones from the kit.

If you're nice to Norm from Replicas & Miniatures, you can order his motorcycle tires separately from him. His Dunlop 3.25x19 tires fit the TruWires-79 wheels, the Goodyear 3.25x18 and Bridgestone 3.00x18 tires fit the TruWires-74 wheel. 

For an additional $5.00 per set I offer a choice of colored wire spokes.

My wheels come packaged as such:

Shipping in US is $3.50. On multiple orders I do not charge shipping on each set. I will mail up to 6 sets in a padded envelope for $3.50.

International orders, please contact me about shipping costs to your country.

If you are interested in acquiring a set, please message me on the forum or contact me at ceraitz@gmail.com. Please note PayPal is my preferred form of payment, but if that's not an option let me know and we'll work out something.
