Recommended Posts

Always wanted to do an Ateam lunchbox on a brat chassis.

Those wheels are called Cheviot Turbo's, but I wouldnt have the faintest what RC wheels are similar sorry :blink:

The wheels were produced here in america by American racing from 1983-1989

The multi-spoke design is quite common on a few on-road cars, for example the Tamiya Xsara TT-01 and a few of the other rally cars, I also have some JC wheels that are the same kind of design. They don't have the deep dish though, this will probably be a lot harder to find.

I didn't realise you knew, I was just trying to help.

I'm guessing they must be A/R on the General Lee aswell.

Also Wolfrace and Western Wheels made a similar wheel.

And help you did indeed,I was just stating that they were made here in the states also just by another company. I will have to compare on the general lee wheels against the Ateam wheels. That will be a funny coincidence if they are the same.

I am doing a project build and am looking for a set of wheels that look identical or similar to these.

they're quite different to the a/r ones that are on the general lee. they're identical to cheviot turbo's though :)

i'd be looking at toy grade rc for wheels like that, cant say i've ever seen anything hobby grade!

The closest thing tamiya did to these are the Audi Quattro/ Opel Ascona/ Willies Wheeler wheels.

Won't fit an M-chassis though.

These Tamiya Alloy M-Chassis wheels would get the desired dished effect. The spokes are not quite the same pattern however. Very nice wheels I must say, have them fitted to my M04 Beetle.

Picture shows them sitting under a Lunchbox body.
