Default where to find dually rims?

Does anyone know where I can find some dually rims, like the rims used on the back two axles of Tamiya semi trucks. I found these, http://rc4wdstore.com/product_info.p...roducts_id=656, on rc4wd but I don't need all of those, only a set of the dual wheel rims. For more clarification, if it is needed, this is what I'm trying to get,

This pic is of one obijuan's rigs which can be found here Chevy Crew Cab

not exactly, theyre more of a 1.6 -1.7 rim. nothing a little glue cant fix. however, theres a writeup on scale4x4 on how to adapt your rims to a 1.9. you basically slip the wheel into a hollowed out 1.9 outer wheel.

If any of you guys remember the ski conversion kits for the RC10 Gold pan, they came with a dual wheel onversion also. It was basically 2 wingnuts welded together "wingtip-wingtip" the one threaded to the axle (inner wheel) and then you threaded a bolt into the ouside nut to hold the outer wheel on.

OOOOOOOr, the contact CPE and see if they can hook you up with the axle extenders for their wideners maybe????
