Can we see the back side of the wheel casting to see how Blitz handled the front wheel brakes? For some reason Riich made the rear wheel brakes separate pieces but incorporated the front brakes into the wheel moldings.

I prefer the solid disc style wheels myself, but I would use these just for the hard treads.

Guy used to sell on eBay but not anymore it seems. They have a blog here with a contact email. I'll try this and let you know. http://blitz-creations.blogspot.de/ Cheers, Christophe

I prefer the open disc wheels myself - I think it makes the vehicle more visually interesting and opens up the underbody for the viewer to see more of that great detail! They are not TOO hard to drill out. I substituted a plain plastic disc for the back side of the front wheels just so I could cut the brakes out of the back side of the front wheels and make them more of a detail match for the seperately molded rear brakes.
