General Dynamics F-16 (A,B,C,D) Fighting Falcon late (weighted) Wheels set Scale 1:48 ResKit RS48-0024 for Aircraft Model Kit

ResKit RS48-0024 is a 1/48 weighted wheels set for the General Dynamics F-16 (A,B,C,D) Fighting Falcon (late), produced as 3D printed resin parts to capture the subtle tire bulge and sharper hub detail typical of parked aircraft.

On an F-16 the stance is a big part of the finished look, and weighted tires help avoid a “floating” feel on the gear. This set focuses on a consistent flattened contact patch while keeping the sidewall and hub detail crisp (kit-dependent).

For modelers: align the flat spots carefully so both main wheels sit with the same toe-in/toe-out impression, then test the model on a level surface before glue cures; keep primer light around the hubs so the bolt and brake detail stays defined.

FAQ

Do weighted wheels require a specific alignment when installing?

Yes. Orient the flattened contact patch consistently so both main wheels sit evenly and the aircraft stance looks natural. Test on a flat surface before the glue sets.

Will this set fit any 1/48 F-16 kit?

It is intended as a universal 1/48 accessory for F-16 builds, but axle and brake-detail layout can vary by kit. Test-fit before paint and adjust mounting as needed (kit-dependent).

How can I keep the hub detail sharp after painting?

Use thin primer and paint layers and avoid flooding the hub face. If masking is needed, de-tack tape first to reduce the chance of lifting paint from resin.
