Default looking for 1.9 wheel

Looking for a 1.9 wheel to match my 1:1 old school progressive wheel.
No luck searching so far.
Let me know if anyone has seen something close.
Thanks, Rob.

Now I see why you were looking for the "BFG" tires.

I think the Traxxas Bronco rims might be the closest, except for the 5 lugs. Chrome sprayed with flat clear, looks alot like aluminum rims.

GCM used to make some deep dish rims that are pretty close, but not sure if those are still available.

Here's a pic of them together...


GMade has some also, but not as deep

Those are close.
I found some Tamiya pajero wheels that I will try and fill, sand, grind, drill to make look the same.

Gearhead has a match.
If not, Lockedup RC does.

There's a bright version of this one from Gearhead.

Yup, I have the silver version. Didn't think it was that close a match, so I didn't mention it.

Keep looking' I just saw those for sale a few days ago but I was looking for something else at the time and don't remember which site it was. It may have been RC4WD.

Shapeways has several designers with wheels that could be contacted -

https://www.shapeways.com/

This is the 1/10th R/C wheels section:

https://www.shapeways.com/marketplac...D%5Bto%5D=2500

It is always tricky getting an exact match - what R/C chassis and body will you be using?

Sometimes going up or down a size is the closest you can get...

Some similar wheels - colors can be stripped and polished or re-done, SuperShafty and LatticeWorks offer a color change service:

These are only in 1.55" - RC4WD Ultra Beadlocks:



These are a bit different - Gearhead RC ENK 1.9":



The ENK 1.55" version is closer to what you want, and the gold center is a separate part that would be easier to get the right color:



I've got some LockedUpRC wheels, but I don't see any close to your design on their site...

I'm pretty sure that's my photo from my Bronco thread here: Jato Got a Bronco

I think the GCM wheels look great and close enough to your wheels.

Hmmm...those look pretty nice. $69 US? Not bad. More selection somewhere?? Or is it from limited production?
A lot of 1.55's
