Wheel bands for the D8500 tractor in 1:24 scale are an accessory set from the Armour Models brand, intended for the wheels of a model of an agricultural tractor.
Responsibility details are not available.
This is a small accessory for the builder, not a kit of the whole machine. The set concentrates purely on the wheel bands of the D8500 agricultural tractor and deals with a part that is very much on show on a finished model, because on a tractor the wheels make up a substantial share of the silhouette.
On a machine with tall wheels, a viewer's eye goes to them first. A carefully made band adds credibility to a model at once, whereas a coarser shape pulls the whole impression down. The 1:24 scale is also large enough for a viewer to look at the contact surface too, so work on the wheels pays off twice over.
The designation D8500 belongs to a German agricultural tractor of the late 1930s. It was a robust, simple machine built for a long life and heavy field work, with tall rear wheels and an open structure. Tractors like this also appeared outside farming during the Second World War, in rear-area and supply roles, so it suits civilian and military subjects alike.
Before you fit the bands, try them on dry and check that they sit true on the axis. A small deviation shows on a large wheel as a visible wobble that then needlessly draws the eye on the finished machine. The accessory does not make up a model by itself; it assumes a finished kit of the tractor.
