Yankee makes them, other than this, we're out of luck, unless there's a boutique manufacturer out there.

Hi Everyone,
This is Rick (RICK'S R/C) here. I would love to make a run of wheels again. I've found a supplier that is reasonably priced and does fantastic work. I just need to get a minimum order of between 50 and 100 wheels. They would be exactly the same wheels that I made way back when. Depending on the quantity, the price would probably be less than the original wheels. I've even got drawings for a wheel with the original centers, but with a 5" diameter rim if anyone's interested.
Respond back on this post and let me know what you think.

Okay everyone, Let's take a count on how many wheel sets wanted. I will start with two sets.

I'm loving the response. I see that there are still some active "Quarter" heads out there. This is great!
I need to let these "protests" die down a bid then I'll do the footwork to get some realistic prices that I can guarantee for all of you. It would be helpful for me to know which wheels are the most popular. There were four styles; Indy, Grand National, Off road, and Drag. The Drag and Off Road had four to five different size rim widths. Let me know which style and rim width you vote for and approximate number of Sets that you might like to purchase. Of course, I understand that the price hasn't been set yet, so just assume that the wheels will be in your price range in you estimate of quantity.
This is going to be fun!
Kind Regards, Rick

Rick not only had the best rims. He also had the best looking brochure.

Anthony,

Thanks for posting the brochure and image. I was just trying to figure out how to do that.
