Wire Wheels needed

[Ralphie]

Looking for some nice wire wheels for and early Cobra 15" wheels like in the picture. Chrome or 3D printed. Need 4.

Have a look at USCP. They have some very nice wires on offer. 3D Printed Wheels 1/24

Thanks, wonder which one would be the correct ones to use on this Cobra ?

Good question. I am not really wire-wheel savvy. There are subtle differences between one wheel and the next (aside from actual spoke-count) as occasionally discussed by knowledgeable forum members, but I don't know what these differences are or where to look for them. 15" wires are offered in Aston Martin, Jaguar, and Classic British configurations, but aside from the knock-ons they all look similar to me. Perhaps the knock-ons are the primary difference between them all. If that is the case, the Jag wheels most closely match the photo you posted of the Cobra.

One thing I can say for sure; all of the Italian wheel offerings are not correct for the Cobra.

theres a set of gt40 wire wheels on cults for free download. they would probably be closer to the cobra rims

after looking at them the jag rims seem closer. the ones from the tamiya mk2 jag might be a good fit

They look good if they are 15" wheels. Also I don't have a 3D printer

I have these.

 

I've no idea what they are out of 

Although probably not accurate to the OPs needs

Thanks but not the right type.

I think I have a set of the Tamiya Jaguar wheels. I can check when I get home later tonight. I can’t think of anything I need. If I do have them, just help someone else out when you can.
