Here are some wheels Ive been making for 2 years now..not continueously, just off and on, try new things, scrap ideas etc. Here is where Im at now.

They got a TQ Thrust wheel (track star) style going with them.

Rears consist of a seperate 5 lug bolt patern that mounts behind the wheel. Has seperate bead lock rims. All seperate for easier detailing, seeing that chrome and black wheels are very popular today. (my favorite color combo for years now before it was a trend)

Front wheels can be spindle mount or using the 5 lug spacer, be converted to a regular 5 lug drag/weekend warrior wheel for the front.

They fit revell slicks and front runners. (funny car/pro sportsman, and others that share the same openings as the previous mentioned)

Right now Im making the spacers and such, then Il cast the rest :(

Have not seen any drag wheels like these in scale, at least this style of setup, so Im pretty happy to master these up.

I got a friend whos getting the first pair to test them out, as I stopped building drag cars for a while.

They all mount on 3/32 tubing.

here are some quick shots.

Those wheels are a really great idea. Those would be very cool in giving a pro mod at "Vintage" look. The real racing wheel companies should do some like that. Nice work.

Best of Luck
