3D model description

I designed scale looking wire wheels for my Ferrari 250 GTO (from L&L Models) and HPI 26mm vintage tires. Should also fit other vintage tires with a tall sidewall.

Wirewheel01 was used on the front of my 250 GTO and Wirewheel02 was used on the back. Wirewheel02 has lower offset and gives a slightly wider track.
Wingnut01 is a three-armed knockoff nut. Press onto M4 nyloc nuts and add thin CA to secure.
Wingnut02 is a two-armed knockoff nut. Press onto M4 nyloc nuts and add thin CA to secure.
Wingnuttool01 and 02 is a tool to make tightening of the nuts easy.

Remove the outer support rings and inside support tower after printing.

3D printing settings

No generated support is needed. It relies on bridging to create the spokes. There might be slight curling on the first layer but it's usually not visiblefrom the outside.

I used 2-3 perimeters, 0,2 layers and 20% infill.
