                        Thanks I'll take a look at that! I think I have seen that kit but I hace never noticed the wheels. I might can use the wheels from a t-bucket style roadster/hotrod. Think the "al a cart" roadster [white cutsom t-bucket with scallope paint scheme]has some too.Shy [8)]

                        Revell's 58 Vette may have the wheels you are looking for.

                        I just bought this VW kit of Herbie by Polar Lights in the hopes that it included the wide "deep dish" wheels that Herbie often "wears". Though I was pleased to find that it has both a detailed engine bay and "trunk" [with spare tire!] it did not include the "ralley wheels", just the standard skinny tires. Anyone know a kit I could kit bash for some deep dish [aka reversed] "Baby Moon" style wheels with raised letter tires preferably. [I might can use stock car wheels if I put my VW hub caps in the center]. Any ideas?
