About product

KrAZ-255B 1:72: resin wheels with VI-3 tires

A resin wheel set for a model of the Soviet KrAZ-255B off-road truck in 1:72 scale. The manufacturer designates it for tires of the VI-3 type and casts them with a flattening where they touch the ground, so the finished vehicle stands under its own weight. This is not a vehicle kit but an accessory for a kit you buy separately.

The real subject

The KrAZ-255B was a heavy off-road truck with all-wheel drive, built from the end of the 1960s in Kremenchuk. Its distinguishing mark became the conspicuously large low-pressure tires, which reduced the pressure on the ground and let it get through mud, sand and a ford. The vehicle was used in engineer and artillery units, as a tractor and as a carrier for bodies, and it went on to a long civilian career in forestry and construction. It is exactly the wheels that are most visible on a model, so improving their rendition pays off.

Fitting and painting tips

Wash the castings in warm soapy water and cut the casting blocks off with a saw. Resin is glued with cyanoacrylate glue; cement for plastic does not hold on it. The deep tread of low-pressure tires comes into its own when you work a dark glaze into it over the base coat and then lighten the edges of the blocks slightly. Separate the rim off by masking. For a military vehicle from the field an earthy pigment in the grooves of the tread suits well; on a civilian version dust and a light sheen on the sidewall are enough.

Who the set is for

  • builders of the KrAZ-255B in 1:72 scale
  • modelers of dioramas with off-road equipment
  • anyone interested in a faithful stance of the vehicle on the ground
  • builders who are not happy with hard circular wheels in plastic

This is an accessory for a model, not a kit. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is not. This is a set of resin wheels that will replace the wheels from the plastic kit. The vehicle model, glue and paints are not in the box.

It is the type designation of the tire this off-road truck was shod with; the manufacturer gives it on the box. It determines the tread pattern and the profile of the tire on the casting.

It is not stated here. Check the scope of the set on the box, including whether a spare wheel is part of it.

Over the base coat work a dark glaze into the tread and let it run into the grooves. Then lighten the edges of the blocks slightly and finally add an earthy pigment, so the wheel looks worked in.
