Roy Sutherland has released two sets of beautifully detailed BarracudaCast resin replacement wheels for Airfix's impressive 1:24 Grumman Hellcat.

The new 1/24th Hellcat from Airfix is a big model, and its beautifully detailed. Oddly, the wheels are not up to the level of the rest iof the kit. No worries! BarracudaCast to the rescue with the styles of wheels.

BR24412 - F6F Hellcat Diamond Tread Wheels
This set contains new resin mainwheels featuring tires with accurate
diamond tread pattern, logos and tyre data. The wheels also
incorporate detailed hubs and separate hubcaps for an excellent 3
dimensional look. Diamond tread tires are the most common type fitted,
and could be seen in any theater. A simple and very visible upgrade
for the Airfix 1/24th scale Hellcat. Designed by Mike O'Hare.

BR24412 - F6F Hellcat Cross Tread Wheels
This set contains new resin mainwheels featuring tyres with accurate
crucifix style tread pattern, logos and tyre data. The wheels also
incorporate detailed hubs and separate hubcaps for an excellent 3
dimensional look. Cross tread tires were not as common, but were used
widely in the Fleet Air Arm and USN as well. A simple and very
visible upgrade for the Airfix 1/24th scale Hellcat. Designed by Mike
O'Hare.

Both sets are available now from Barracuda Studios - Price: $13.95 each.
