Type 82 Kübelwagen Tires
Warriors 1:16 Scale Set #WAMW015
Review by Terry Ashley
The Set:
For those who have
the excellent Tamiya 1/16 Kübelwagen kit and feel a bit limited with
the desert balloon tires, Warriors have come to the rescue with this set of standard
tires.
You get the five tires which are cast in light cream resin. They feature very nice tread pattern and hub detail with the inside mounting designed to fit the Tamiya parts (as you would imagine). You will need to add the tire valve stem to the rims from thin sprue.
These new tires simple replace the kit tires entirely and fit without problems. You have to eliminate some of the kits parts not needed for these tires, parts F45 and K3 for the rear and parts F46 and K2 for the front. For the spare simply leave off parts K11 and K12 and fit the spare to the moulded mount.
With these tires the options are limitless for finishing your Kübelwagen.
