Thought I would share, as this is something you don't see every day (I am sure that temple and cline will appreciate more than most, as they are 1/12 freaks). Not sure how old they are, but I assume very. I need to see if they will fit the Bolink aluminum wheels, as I think they would look best on those. Also, from memory, I think that this is what Associated used on a lot of their pics for their 1/12 bodies they would put in their news letters.

I take it there printed on clear sheet so they just add the detail to whichever wheel you use, I've never seen them before, should look pretty cool.

Trinity made them, as well. Both in 1/12th and 1/10th and were on white Mylar. I have a few packs of them at home in the big box o' decals...

Trintiy...I was going nuts for a few minutes trying to remember who made the other set of wheel decals.
Does anyone make a set for offroad dish wheels. I saw a set on a triumph and it changed the look of the wheels in a big way.

I think those were custom made, I was going to make some just like that and also a few variations.

Those are cool, the off road would be cool since they dont make many cool offroad wheels their all plain, a guy at my Local track has some that look like clocks their strange.

Here is an example of what I was talking about with the older Associated Catalogs and Flyers. I think these are the same ones..... nice to know that they came from Parma (I assume). Sorry for the poor quality photo.

I always thought those were actually alloy wheels. I have a color spread with some Asso. bodies, there is a yellow Pennzoil indy car that has gold mesh wheels that look real?
