Wheels and Tires

[RocketSilo]

I found a kit I want to convert to an Altered wheel base car.
problem is ,, where can I get the proper Wheels/tires for something like that?
I know there will be a lot of scratch building involved, Including the motor
but Wheels are the big hold up.
I would like to do something like this for the contest.

all I can find so far are those Crip and Donk type Wheels up in the hizzy....

and I can't afford to buy kits just for the Wheels right now.

J/K...something skinny in the front and fat in the back, and look some-what authentic.

You need wheels and tires?

 

[RocketSilo]

yes ,wheels or rims and tires
I don't have a spares box ,it will take a long time for me to compile one.
I only started building again a few months ago.
I'm hoping in the spring I might find some things at yard sales.
I know there are online sources for wheels and tires from reading about builds on the internet, just haven't
found many of them yet.
the ones I have found deal more with modern custom rims and big thinwall tires.

there's a guy on ebay that sells all kind of resin drag wheels but not the tires .. I hate to guess what fits what..almost need a one stop shop that sells both.

My fav of the gto's are the mid 60's, before they were rounded off.
