needed HELP IDENTIFYING THESE WHEELS!

Post by JamesB »

Yes, guys. Me, the one always boasting to be able to guess what car is it at the sight of a corner of rear wing, or identifying any part of a kit, OK I am helpless this time! :oops: :lol: :lol:
In my quest of looking for cheap and reasonable replacement wheels for Bandai's 1/12 1512 Ferrari F1, I was looking at some suposed wheels belonging to a stranded Honda V12 1/12 fom Tamiya, when I said WOW!!! that's got 5 spokes and not 6, hmmmm an almost perfect match for 158 and 1512 Ferraris!! :P
Regardless I am surely using them, I'd like to know where they come from. If only to know what poor kit I must thank! :lol: It's 13 inches as you see i the pics. Upright is quite skinny and the steering rod looks qite small.
Any hint?
Thanks in advance, guys!
