I got inspired to do a set of the ALCOAS. But I found a different route. I'll post pics, later. Actually looks more like the CLASSIC II's. I've even set-up a system type deal. Where I can make the wheels in different offset's. Makes me want to do it in RESIN.

Thomas, hold off on your resin casting for a bit until you see the wheel choices coming soon (including M/T aka Alcoas). 20+ different truck wheels on the way...

I did the masters for 32! different wheel inserts, some will be usable on cars also, but probably 20+ are truck specific. These inserts are made to fit the latest SoReal rim (which I modified and will be cast as part of the set) and also other rim sizes will be cast that these inserts fit. I got tired of seeing all of these cool lifted rigs with Weld Stonecrusher rims! This will give us choices! I'll let the caster show these once they're cast & ready for production... ;D

Looks great Thomas! The only problem I see is that the M/T (Alcoas) only have 8 holes ;D
Did you use a NASCAR "D" hole wheel to fashion it from?
