The real subject

Here it is the number 359 in a diameter of nineteen inches, in reduction therefore a wheel roughly twenty millimeters in diameter. The tires are executed in the stance style, which is recognized by a low sidewall stretched over a wide rim and by a body seated tight above the ground.

Building and painting tips

With a lowered build it is the seating of the wheel in the fender that decides, so try it dry first and only then adjust the seating of the axles. Cut the excess material and the marks left by production away with a sharp blade a little from the part and sand the remainder so that the circumference of the rim stays round. Wash and degrease the parts before painting. Paint the rim and the tire separately and join them only once dry; you will thereby keep the edge around the circumference clean without masking.

Who it is for

The set is intended for builders of modern road cars and urban-style modifications who want large wheels with a stretched tire. Choose a suitable glue according to the material of the parts and go by the manufacturer's instructions. Paints and glue are not part of the delivery, unless stated otherwise.
