This latest new set from Ultracast continues with early FW-190 wheels in 1/48 scale. This set has the spoked wheels typical of early 190s, but in this case, has the treaded tires. The set is superbly molded and on easy to remove pour stubs. One simply paints the wheel, removes it from the stub and installs it on the model being built after ensuring that the axle hole is drilled out to the proper size (though it looks about right in the image).
