I found some nice rims, but they are advertised as rims for the Globe Liner, Scania R470 and Knight Hauler.

Give us a :link: too these rims!
The original rims for the tamiya trucks are the same on everyone.

I belive those rims will fit all of the Tamiya tractor trucks.
I have been looking at those myself, but i went for the Tamiya alloy rims since they got senter hubs on the rear rims.

I really like my set. In fact that's my Knight Hauler in the pics. Those wheels will fit all the semi trucks.

Not all the OE wheels are the same, though. The Globeliner and King Hauler have different front wheels than the Knight and European trucks (Euro rigs have a guard ring around the lug nuts).

The RC4WD rims, are a perfect fit on the King hauler…

Those are a pretty nice set of RC$WD wheels. I just wish they came with rear center caps.

I have the Tamiya wheels on my King Hauler and Knight hauler. I really like them as they have canter caps front and rear, are a direct fit and you get an extra set of tires with them.

I have bought a few sets of GPM wheels for some future semi builds. What I like about these is the rear wheel is a double aluminum wheel. Whereas the Tamiya rear rim is only the front half. The GPM wheel will also polish out nicely like how this Tamiyaclub member InetRC did to his wheels.
