Anyone know where to get Altaya parts?
I just purchased this Camaro from France and have another car that NEEDS these wheels/tires (year specific). I do not want to remove them from this car to use on another. Is there a contact to buy Altaya parts?

I'm not sure of the connection, but it seems at least some models by IXO are interchangeable to some extent with Altaya. Perhaps others? The providing of small parts is, I imagine, a tedious job with small financial rewards. The only company I know that really makes the effort is BRK. Good luck!

I doubt you'll be successful Frank. The only way may be to buy a second model

Altaya is part of DeAgostini
Partworks firms never keep spare parts. They either supply you a second model or give you your money back. That is their sales model. Altaya/DeAgostini use both Universal Hobbies and Ixo to make their models.
I think only way to get similar wheels is looking out for a cheap model on eBay with the same wheels.

Definitely the way to go - I experienced it with wheels for their trucks.
