These five sets are cast replacements for plastic kit parts from a variety of manufacturers. As expected from this well-known accessory company, these are beautifully cast in cream resin with superb sharp details, minimal web attachments to their casting blocks and will look just great with careful painting.

They appear to have just a hint of flattened bulged ground contact.

 

 

Parts come in the familiar zip-lock clear sleeve with a card backing that indicates the kits they should be used on.

All of these are recommended.

The two Sea Fury sets are:

  • BR72351 - Sea Fury Main wheels with diamond tread, and

  • BR72352 - Sea Fury Main wheels with block tread.

The three Spitfire sets are:

  • BR723452 - Spitfire Mk I - IX  five slot Main wheels

  • BR723453 - Spitfire five slot Z-block Main wheels, and

  • BR723454 - Spitfire Mk I - IX  covered hub Main wheels.

 

 

These are excellent replacement parts that will enhance any model they are used on.
