About product

Wheels with K-58 tires for the BTR-60 in 1:72

A replacement for the road wheels of the armored personnel carrier as the Armory brand has prepared it for 1:72 scale. The tires bear the designation K-58 and are shaped as weighted, that is with a flat seating on the road. The set is used in place of the parts that came with the base kit and does not form any vehicle on its own.

The amphibious carrier BTR-60

The BTR-60 was a four-axle, that is eight-wheeled, armored personnel carrier of Soviet production from the turn of the 1950s and 1960s. Two gasoline engines drove it, it could swim, and its characteristic feature was precisely the set of four axles with tire pressure regulation on the move. The first versions had an open fighting compartment, the later ones received a closed hull with a small turret. The machine spread to dozens of armies and in a number of them served long after the breakup of the Eastern Bloc.

Fitting and painting the tires

Before gluing them in, check that all the wheels seat on a flat plane; on an eight-wheeler the slightest deviation shows up in the model standing on seven points. Always orient the contact patch downward. Do not paint the tires black but dark gray with a hint of brown, as otherwise they look like rubber from another world. The tread pattern stands out when a dry light pigment is worked into it after drying.

Suitable for

  • builders of Soviet and Eastern European equipment
  • modelers who are bothered by flat or indistinct tread patterns in the base box
  • anyone interested in scenes with vehicles both moving and standing
  • creators of dioramas where the running gear is in the foreground of the shot

FAQ

The tire is shaped as if the weight of the vehicle stood on it, that is with a flat seating on the road.

No. You are buying the road wheels alone; the vehicle itself has to be obtained separately.

The set is prepared for the BTR-60 in 1:72 scale. The manufacturer does not give a specific box in the name, so we recommend trying it dry.
