I've just bought a damaged Ertl 1;18 Two Lane Blacktop 55 chevy.

I plan to repair it & make it a bit more realistic with some weathering ect.

BUT it has Cragar 5 spoke wheels, not Daisy Mags as in the film (c'mon Ertl pay attention). Where can I buy 1;18 Daisy mag wheels ? Resin or did they come on another car ?

Would the Bullitt Mustang work?

Also you might Google GMP wheels. They have a lot of styles in 1:18

The do look close, sjordan2. Probably closer than the Cragars.

Doughnut, I've got some Cragars from the AMT 1;16 57 Chevy, so I'll compare those first.

I'm sure I've seen resin Daisy mags on ebay, but coulda got the scale wrong due to my bad memory.

I could swear that I have seen someone offering these wheels in resin in a larger scale? I can't remember what scale though. Another way to search for them is by looking for "200S" wheels.

I've seen them on ebay as well, but they have always been repops of the 1/25th and 1/16th scale rims offered in the older kits. I have not seen a 1/18th scale set, but they could be out there.
