Accurate Armour makes/made a set of white metal solid road wheels for the M3/M8/M5. The set includes a white metal 2-piece sprocket, idler wheel and 8 solid road wheels. The back of the sprockets have the hex nut shape so I am guessing it was made for the Tamiya kits.
It is set C07.

Thank you both. That's a heck of a build article by the way.
I have a history with both Verlinden and Accurate Armour. The choice will be easy-I'll get the AA set with my annual order from them. (If it's no' Sco'ish, it's cra...!)

Or you can use the spare set from Academy's M3s which have both spoked and stamped wheels.
