--------------------

 

This new resin wheel set from Royale Resin are a direct replacement for the kit wheels.  It will be a simple job to remove them from the casting blocks and the connection point will be the weighted bottom of the tires.  The tires are finely detailed with realistic looking treads and sidewall detail that includes tiny writing and other detail as found on the full sized tires.  The wheels have full detail on both sides......this is crisp realistic looking detail that includes brakes on one side and lug nuts etc on the other side.

If you are building a 1/48 A-10 Thunderbolt II, then you should definitely consider adding these resin wheels.

I would like to thank Doug Smith at Royale Resin for providing me with this review sample.
