Greg Myers Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 Man, these suck ! What was wrong with the old clear wheels ? I was looking forward to BMF a set. Yeah right . But anything would be better than what they did give us. I know some one made a PE wire wheel setup for front engined dragsters awhile back. But i can't find anything on line.
Matt T. Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 Replicas & Miniatures of MD does the PE wire wheels with resin tires. RM-59A, B and C have 19",18" and 16" tires, respectively. They are billed as 1/24-1/25.
Mike Kucaba Posted October 10, 2013 Posted October 10, 2013 Check out MAS on ebay. Has the wheels all in metal.

Blown03SVT Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 The kit isn't even out yet.... True, but there is still usefulness in this post for those who are building any nostalgia dragster like the AMT double kit or the 22jr.
Greg Myers Posted October 11, 2013 Author Posted October 11, 2013 I'm just lookin' an droolin' over all the nostalgia parts in that new kit that WILL be out soon.
Mike Kucaba Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 I have wheel sets by both Mas(Customs by Terry) on ebay and R&MoM. They are both useful. Mas has a metal turned rim, hub and P.E wires Cost more that R&MoM. R&MoM are resin rim& hub Resin tires and the P.E wires. You could build the R&MoM complete, and then Alclad them. They do cost less and come with a resin jig to aid in assembly,
