Fuel Coupe Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 When I got out of the hobby 8+ years ago JPS wheels were the hot set-up for aluminum wheel sets. I was buying them from Plastic Fanatic. JPS wheels were machined aluminum one piece wheels and were simply gorgious. there were tons of styles but they werent cheap. I think they were about $40 for a set. JPS still has a website and still has the wheels listed but I wasnt sure. I plan to contact them monday to see if thay are still offering the wheels JPS is a R/C company but sold these 1/24 scale wheels. anyone know if they still offer them?
envious8420 Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 i had a few sets of those for my clods when i was rc rock crawling. very nice pieces, im also interested in the 24th scales. i was looking at their site a few weeks ago wondering the same as you, just never followed through with it. so if you would lmk what they say. thanks
Fuel Coupe Posted June 24, 2009 Author Posted June 24, 2009 Called http://jpspro.com/ and they are still available but at higher price of $56 for a set of four. Many styles and widths. I'll be placing an order soon

Exotics_Builder Posted June 27, 2009 Posted June 27, 2009 I bought some sets back in the 1990's. They are nicely done. I used one set for a 34 Ford Street Rod, sold another to a friend for a car model he was doing and still have a set in the wheels box for a future project.
Ron L Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 What size do those wheels scale out to? It looks like tires aren't included; what do you use?
PlasticWagens Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Had forgotten all about them, but they scream ZZ Top Roadster......just sayin!
