Anybody know of a resource to buy nice pro-touring wheels and tires for 1/24 and 1/25 model kits?

Is there a thread showing off models you guys have built?

Hey Ben, I used to manufacture scale detail parts for the plastic kits. Turned many an aluminum rim and a ton of other parts... Got out of it when my job location changed and I didn't have the time to put into it. PM me and we can talk about what you want or are looking for.
Here are some pics of what I can do. The "spokes" can be done with 3D Printing or I have a ton of photo-etched centers I used with the aluminum rings.
The first couple are 1/16th scale

Here is a pic with a 1/25th scale Pro Street tire for comparison.

Found some pics of a 39 Chevy kustom a friend built. He used a set of my aluminum rims with photo etched rally centers and turned caps.

There is a thread here with a few scale builds shown.
