Yup. Next time I have some positive cash flow there will be an order of these to make it negative again.

I've been buying from SCC on occasion lately. Service is top rate.
I was using BWA narrow 15s for Jag builds, but they've been out of stock since before Al handed things over to Art. So, I'd been trying Colin at RS Slot Racing in the UK. They're not quite the same, but pretty close.
I buy what I can locally. Armchair Racer in Sydney or Thunderbird Raceway out of Adelaide. But what they stock doesn't always do the job. Slot.it wheels don't do what I need for the classics. If I change wheels on a GT or a Touring Car then I use MJK Engineering wheels. Local mob do a really good job. I used their tyres exclusively until I found that Paul Gage did some that MJK didn't cover.
The 14s are a size that's been missing. Oh, and the CB Design 5 slots are a great substitute for SlotingPlus Americana's which I love but can no longer get.

Just a quicky to say AWESOME WHEELS! Better get some 13s sorted next.

Ha, we are never satisfied. Once you give us a taste, we want the full plate :)
My parts bins are full of shiny wheels...now I need to use them.
What car you working on Lynne?

FPF Mark II Sprite. Really should have 13s on it, but I'm liking the look of the 14s with a low profile tyre. If I can squeeze them in I'll be a very happy little Vegemite.

I did sort of the same thing on some oval cars, should have had the larger 17's but with a taller profile tire, they looked fine.
So I was a happy Carnivorous Vulgaris :)
