Vintage HPI rim question

Good evening,

I am rebuilding a 1995 Losi Junior Two and it has HPI 5 spoke, chrome front wheels with proline tires mounted. They are the ones with the the bearing inserts. I've been looking on EBay and HPI website with no luck. Would also be interested in the stock rims if I can not locate the HPI's.

Any ideas would be appreciated....Thank you,
Dave

The old HPI super stars are one of my favorite vintage wheels and they can be elusive. They made them both universal and vehicle specific with a variety of backspacing options in a variety of colors. Finding a matching set for any particular car can sometimes take patience. I've been waiting for a set of pink rears for my 10T for a while. Keep an eye out for them on ebay. They are bought and sold on there frequently and what's available is constantly changing. I would also check with Sabula Tech and maybe JC racing in the UK to see what they have available for your car.
