Hi - I am looking for some BWA wheels for 3/32 axles. I can get some measurements and potentially part numbers to help narrow this down.
Thank you and LMK, Mark

Hi David, Thank you for the help. I am resurecting some cars that my Son and I ran with the club back in 2007.

There is a new wheel made by CB Design that may be something you would want to look at. They come in many sizes and styles. One thing that is good with these wheels, they do not have a mounting hub on the inside of the wheel. With these wheels, they can be mounted using wider wheels and fitting the wheels in a narrow space. Will work when we work on a Monogram NASCAR bodied car. They are available from many places, but I think they are produced through the suppler, Slot Car Corner. Slot Car Corner also sells Quick Slicks tires, Silicone. They are able to get cars from some manufactures and will have tires available when the cars reach our local store, Colpar. I am using the CB Design wheels on my Trans Am cars to help in getting a proper tire and wheel under my cars. I have 15.8mm x 8mm wheels on each of my Trans Am cars, even the very narrow Scalextric 69/70 Mustangs. On all of my cars, the wheels and tires fit under the fenders. I am using the "stock open" wheel design for my cars, which doesn't require an insert. They do make insert wheels in many sizes also. I have used some of Dan Wilson's inserts in the "insert" wheels.

Jim - Thanks - I will have to check them out. As far as the BWA wheels go these are for projects that I need another set on and they need to be these. As it is I was not a fan of BWA wheels and I ended up with many hours on the lathe reworking them to fit what I needed. One additional complaint is that Al would reduce the center bore and call these wheels a 13" in 1/32 scale when the OD was still 15" on 1/32 scale by changing the wheel insert.
I did make them work and need to complete some cars that were ran in the club years ago for the historic purposes. I have friends that could recreate these wheels from scratch for me but....perhaps I am picky and want some good old Canadian made originals before I out a little more Misegadis Motorsports magic on them to suite the purpose.
