Okay, this is just a discussion starter... but I was wondering... it seems HPI has struck a chord in the RC industry by producing realistic 'racing' style vintage wheels...
I'm surprised no other companies have produced authentic OEM scale wheels..

I'd love to see Mopar Rally, Chevy Rally, or Ford Dogdish style wheels.... I REALLY dream of someone doing an authentic 10 spoke American Racing Vector rim, General Lee style...

Are there any companies out there that we could pitch? take requests? smaller companies that would CNC such things?

There seems to have been such rapid growth in all SCALE areas of RC, vintage Racing, crawling, trail rigs, etc... that somebody would start making this type of stuff...

I remember some company back in the early 90's that did some really nice aluminum rims for 10th scale stuff. But they were $$$. That is probably the reason for nobody putting the time effort and materials into CNC'ing any wheels.
