Sorry if this is in the wrong place, Im currently looking at a future project, where I need a wheel/tyre, have seen some that look right for what Im after, however need one, that is about 25-28mm in diameter. Can anyone advise what scale and type of aircraft will have a 25-28mm tyre. For example a 1/32nd scale spitfire/32nd scale P-51/ 1/48th scale Flying fortress?? etc. Thanks very much  |

Tamiya 1/32 Corsair tyre is 25mm,and rubber. HK Lanc and Hobby Boss Liberator are both too large. Hannants have a selection of AM wheels that should fit the bill?

Hi Paul, after getting a guilty conscience I have found this for you  . I checked my wingy spares box and found these, the left one is a Mossie and the right a Blenhiem wheel. Both 1/48, if no-one else has anything closer to you measurements I'll post you them  .  |
