Dream on
Josheus,
Those lovely alloy wheels are made by Z-Speed in Germany.
I have some on my Black Magic CLK.
They are also fragile
I know you trashed a standard wheel on your F1, so if you don't drive it with respect, you'll trash those lovely Z-Speeds too.
If your game for some and are fluent in Deutsch (German), here's a link to a German site that sells them.
http://www.mini-zshop.de/
Here's Z-Speeds home page:
http://www.z-speed.de/
Personally, I'd rather get the alloy wheels from Squat, as they eem more robust and look like the real F1 deal.
The Z-Speeds as nice as they are, kind of contradict the accuracy of the Mini-Z F1, as they dont look like the wheels the teams use.
Josheus, did you get those spares I mailed to you?

UK Hobby Shops
Josheus,
No, none of the UK dealers stock 3rd party wheels for the Mini-Z F1's.
I suggest you mail Mini-Z and ask him to get some.
Price is good and the shipping time is about 10 days
Here's a pic of my CLK with it's Z-Speeds

Squat Alloy F1 wheels..
Mini-Z,
Any chance of price and availability some Squat black alloy F1 wheels for the Jordan?
Josheus - these are the dog's you know what's!
They are alloy and they look realistic.

Mondo, they are Square, not Squat - they are $32/set, and currently we've been offering them only as a special order item as they are expensive to procure and stock. A group buy would make most sense for these if enough people are interested.

I think you're thinking of the Z-Speeds. These are much more realistic, but don't include tires of any kind, they use regular tires so you can use Kyosho rubber tires or Squat foams.

Standard F1 wheels
Josheus,
My Jordan also has a fractured rear wheel, not quite broken, but on it's way.
The Kyosho Mini-Z F1 wheels cannot be purchased individualy, they are sold in sets of four.
Being plastic, they shouldn't be overly expensive.
