About product

Supermarine Spitfire, wheels with a block tread pattern and four-spoke hubs 1:24 (Armory)

A resin set of main wheels from the Ukrainian brand Armory, the manufacturer's part number ARAW24403. It is an accessory for a model, not an airplane kit. In the large 1:24 scale the wheel is one of the most closely watched parts of the whole model, and resin allows a tread pattern and lettering that injection-molded plastic cannot match. The tires are cast with a flattening at the contact patch, so after fitting the machine stands on its wheels as if loaded.

Which wheels these are

  • A block tread pattern on the tire, not a smooth tire
  • A hub with four spokes, that is the open type
  • Four-spoke hubs appeared on machines of the middle and late war
  • The block tread is associated with operation from hard surfaces and decks

Fitting and painting tips

The Spitfire had hubs with three, four and five spokes as well as a fully covered rendition, and the types could be exchanged, though usually the same on both sides. Before buying, compare the tread and the hub with a photograph of the machine you are building. Wash the castings free of mold release agent, cut the casting blocks off and level the face; protect your breathing when sanding resin. Glue with cyanoacrylate glue and do not forget the primer coat. The block tread comes out best when a dark wash is drawn through it after spraying and the edges of the blocks are gently lifted with a dry brush.

Who the set is for

For builders of large Spitfires in 1:24 who want a wheel matching a particular machine. Check the fit with your kit against the box.

It is an accessory for a model, not a kit. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. It is a set of main wheels; you have to have the Spitfire itself from a kit.

A block tread pattern on the tire and a hub with four spokes. A smooth tire and covered hubs are other sets.

Block tires are associated with operation from hard surfaces and decks, so rather with late and postwar machines. Compare a photograph of the particular aircraft.

No. Hubs with three, four and five spokes were used as well as a fully covered rendition, and they could be exchanged, usually the same on both sides.
