I got a TT-O2 Chassis with a Toyota Yaris WRC/WRT body. The kit came with a set of RC Black Rally Dish Wheel 4Pcs.

I wanted to get another set of the wheels for my rally block tires,  but according to the link above, that item has been discontinued.

I found these RC 24Mm Rally Wheels-4Pcs (Chrome), which I do not really fancy, as I prefer black wheels.

Do I have any options for wheels either from tamiya or a third party?

Just look for 26mm rims with +2 mm offset, to have exactly the same setup as now.

There are many available from Tamiya.

Thanks for the info.
I'll try googling to expand my search and see if there are any other rims not made by tamiya as well.

Your 2mm offset can be had with wheel spacers. The important part is the 26mm width wheels if that's what you want. I am not sure why but there seems to be more 24mm wheels available than 26mm. This took me forever to figure out. My TT02R came with 24mm wheels while all the other kits that came with bodies used 26mm wheels. I thought sedan wheels and tires were all the same. One way to kinda key it in but it takes a little research and sorting out is to look at a set of wheels and scroll down to the related products. Some 26mm wheel will show all the tiers that fit that wheel. Ex: https://www.tamiyausa.com/shop/wheels-spareoption/rc-ford-focus-rs-wrc-03-wheels/4pcs/ note, you will see your rally block tires shown below that wheel. BTW, that wheel would look dope on your car. If you don't like white they can be painted or dyed. 

That said, you will run into all sorts of dumb Tamiya stuff which I have taught myself to appreciate. Like this: https://www.tamiyausa.com/shop/wheels-spareoption/rc-2-piece-mesh-wheels-1pr/none/

These wheels are 26mm and will run your rally blocks no problem. But there is no related products listed below and if you read the description it says those wheels fit the narrow 26mm wheels BUT 26mm is not narrow, 24mm is. Now you might get lucky and there will be an available tire list that shows you the tires with their 5 digit part number but they don't always do that. Best advice? Just know that in a short bit of time you will have several sets of wheels and tires both in 26mm and 24mm. I prefer the 24mm better as the sidewalls are a bit thinner and the width looks more scale but that's just my opinion. 

These would work also:

LOL, 24mm's huh? Well you are better off as there are more available and easier to find. Anything that says Medium Narrow or 24mm will butter your biscuit. Oh, and the offset just means how close your wheels come to sticking out of the wheel well. 0 Offset tucks in 2mm's more than 2mm offset. Some geek out over the looks of a flush wheel well.

51021 are the same as the black that come with the Yaris only in white, or 300440075 for gold. 

 

Edit: The nr for the white rally dish wheels was wrong. The 26mm 2 mm offset variant is 51021.
