About product

Weighted type 1 wheels for the Volkswagen 82E in 1:35 scale

Replacement wheels intended for a model of the German staff car Volkswagen Type 82E Käfer. The tires are shaped with a compressed contact patch, so on a diorama the vehicle comes to rest on its base under its own weight instead of touching it at a single point. The designation type 1 distinguishes the tread design from the other variants in the same range.

Which vehicle it shoes

Type 82E came about by joining two designs that were well established at the time: the civilian body of the KdF car, which after the war became the world-famous Beetle, was set on the cross-country chassis of the Kübelwagen. The result was a passenger automobile with an unusually high ground clearance, driven by an air-cooled flat engine at the rear. The Wehrmacht and other German services used it as a liaison and command car and only a few were built, so it is among the rarer subjects.

How to work with the wheels

First rid the wheels of mold residue and wash the surface, so that it holds the primer. Painting tends to be easiest before fitting them to the model: tone the rubber in dark gray, never pure black, and spray the rim separately. The trodden patch will stand out when you bring it out on the lower edge with dust pigment matching the base of the scene.

Who the set suits

  • modelers who build German light vehicles into dioramas
  • those interested in less usual Wehrmacht equipment
  • anyone bothered that wheels out of the box look overinflated
  • builders of scenes where the vehicle stands in mud or sand

It is an accessory, not a whole model of the vehicle. Paints and glue are not enclosed.

FAQ

The tire is modeled the way it deforms under the weight of a standing vehicle. The bottom of the tire is flattened and the vehicle sits naturally on its base.

The individual variants of the same range carry a different tread design. Choose the one that matches the shot or the period you are building from.

No. It is purely the wheels, which replace the ones from the kit. You have to obtain the model itself separately.
