10lbs of Wheel Swaps

Over the winter I did a lot of wheel swaps. I finally got around to photographing them. I will post over the next few days. For models of real cars I tried to pick wheels that make the car look more authentic (e.g. if the real car has 6 spoke wheels I tried to find 6 spoke to swap). Obviously I could not find the right wheels for some cars.
In addition to wheel swaps, for most cars I also:
* Removed chrome (I hate chrome) and painted silver (or other color)
* Added detail such as headlights, tail lights, blacken openings, etc.
* Painted interior and engine (if visible).

It may seem a bit monotonous, but I think these pc wheels are perfect for Ferraris, I think they all should come with these wheels.

What were the wheels taken off of? Really like the steel five spokes.

Some great looking swaps in all three threads!

There are several cars that have these wheels. If you look at the wheel chart from South Texas Diecast http://southtexasdiecast.com/hwguide/wheelguide.html, you will see them labeled PC5 - 5 Spoke Pro-Circuit Wheels. Some of the donors are Porsche 911 GT3 Cup, Dodge Ram, Customized C3500, 56 Chevy Pickup, Camaro Convertible, not sure of the official names, but also a old Ford roadster & Valvoline NASCAR
