ok, here goes.... I know everyone has asked questions about the body a million times, so i'm asking this instead.

What wheel hubs are you replica builders using for your cars???? are they custom or is there a hub with the raised cone to mount the bat emblems on the wheels????

The same ones that were molded off the car. Everyone should have the same ones. The wheel bats were molded off the orginal as well.

I know I'll burn for saying this but I think the wheels from the original look like crap (even though the 89 is by far the best car). I'm sorry but they could have made some nice custom wheels for the car instead of taking poorly designed bat emblems and just sticking them on some plain wheels (atleast taper the emblems or something, they just look like scrap metal they decided to throw on at the last second). You have a bulletproof, automated, jet propelled vehicle... with some ugly plain wheels that have cheap emblem added. I would love to see a Batmobile with some really unique wheels. I hated the two batmobiles in Batman Forever & Batman/Robin movies... but at least they tried something new with the wheels (I like how they look like they're not moving when the car is riding around, but maybe leave off the back lighting since 89 is darker less comical ride). I think a darker, meaner version of the Kilmer or "Clooneymobile" wheels would look nice on the 89. Or maybe even go without an emblem on the wheels... just make them dark and aggressive. There's my two cents lol.

I like the wheels and hubs; they are not suppose to be pretty they are thick hard and sharp able to cut through the tires, rims and frame of a target vehicle, Functional.
