Help find Felt/Electra 3i rims or somethin' similar...

[RedShift]

Hello there!
At the moment I'm going through the whole internet to find Felt/Electra 3i rims (26" and 24" ones) for my future project. I found out that they're kinda rare asf or simply aren't sold separately from a bike... Anyway I'd like to know if there're good knockoffs/copies of such wheels or even originals for a low price. Links and screenshots are appreciated

Apparently, on ebay a guy named "luxlowbikes" sells something like that (26 x 3 cruiser wheels for instance). Also oozee and hbbc have that kind of wheels. What do you think of such offers?

P.S. I'm Russian so I can't order Electra rims using official website.

Also P.S. I plan using 26x2.125 tire on front and 24x3 on rear wheel.

Thanks

Thanks!!!

Talking about Electra, rather this one.

Its profile is rectangularish with a bump in the middle.

There's also a Husky Bicycles store. Have you guys ever bought cruiser parts there?

Nice! What is this store notable for to you? Like which parts did you buy the most there?

Also are there other stores with bunch of cruiser parts?

I buy almost all my chains, tires, bars, and stems for flip bikes from there

Usually buy them in multiples to save shipping

Lil UPDATE:
I found out a guy's is selling PowerRim wheels here in Russia, the notable ones are p32d and p39d. What do you think of them? How good are they as Felt rim replacement?

Well most US Felt hoops are 50mm. So your tires on these p39d’s are going to fit narrower and taller than on a Felt hoop. Personally, I don’t care for the narrower look as those width hoops come on some of the lower level felt cruisers and many (most?) euro model Felt cruisers. They just don’t look as plump.

Could you recommend some rim models/brands you'd use with 3 inch wide tires plsss?

UPDATE: OMG, take a look at this Felt-like wheelset !!

I need a Felt El Guapo 24" rear wheel. 50mm is just about 2". Can I use a 2.125 by 24" rear wheel as a replacement?

Does rear wheel have 24x3 tire? If so, it'd would probably work (as long as 3inch tire fits in your frame lol)
