Hi,

today I have finished the wheels for the 222.
One piece is coloured in primer red as a replaced wheel.
The spare wheel I have made some modifications in the inside and put the rivets into.Image

Incredibly realistic Bodo :!:

Did you have to make many custom tools :?:

Also, is the inner rim a separate turned fitting :?:

Hi Adrian,

as I tried to explain in the first posting: http://www.armortek.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2320 , I have grinded two custom chisels to give the original wheel rims the design you see. Also I have turned four rings on my lathe and glued them into the modified wheel rims.

Kind Regards Bodo
