dNaNo Wheel Sets

I am working with Aluma-Tech to properly document wheel sets by autoscale type. what i need help with is compiling the list of all available autoscales and the corresponding wheel diameters for each autoscale.

example (may not be accurate as this is just an example):
Nissan Skyline GT-R R35
front 20mm
rear 20mm

this may be available in document form for each body type but i need this in a compiled list so that it can be available for reference when selecting Aluma-Tech wheels for purchase.

re-producing stock-sized wheels is one thing... nothing wrong with standard aftermarket parts. BUT when you go into re-producing ASC which are LICENSED scale models of brand name vehicles, is there any possibility you're treading into trademark/copyright/patent violation? not something you want to play with... as often as i see american merchants screaming about asian manufacturers stealing & profiting from amercian designs, i'm surprised to see you guys so eager to do the same thing.

i don't think there is any real chance of having asc quality aluminum wheels made. realistically, your going to be lucky enough to get stylized recreations that resemble specifc wheel types.

dish, 5 hole wheels have been made for the mini-z since aluminum wheels became an option. infact, i think most were made in either asia or germany.

i'm actually not aware of any aluminum wheels (for resale) being made in the u.s. other than aluma-tech.
