Wheels are a focal point on biplanes with open landing gear, and this set is intended to improve hub detail and tire shape with resin and 3D-printed parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReplacing wheels is a straightforward way to sharpen the “stance” of the model and keep both sides consistent. It also helps when kit wheels have soft hub definition or simplified tire profiles that stand out after weathering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gloster Gladiator is a biplane aircraft type with exposed gear geometry. This upgrade focuses on wheel detail so the landing gear area looks cleaner and more scale-like once the model is on its base or display shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor modelers:\u003c\/strong\u003e test-fit the wheels on the kit axles before painting—some kits need a light drill-out or a small sleeve for a snug fit. Keep the flat spot (if you add one) aligned with the aircraft’s weight line, and paint hubs separately from tires to avoid thick edge build-up around the rim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSubject:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gloster Gladiator\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariant \/ Family:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gladiator family\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/48 (also written as 1:48)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wheels Set\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType of equipment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aircraft\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended kit:\u003c\/strong\u003e for Roden, Merit International, I Love Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Metallic Details\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of manufacture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ukraine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Resin and 3D-printed parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e MDR48247\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis item is part of \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/metallic-details\"\u003eMetallic Details\u003c\/a\u003e and belongs to \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/aftermarket\"\u003eAftermarket\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/wheels\"\u003eWheels\u003c\/a\u003e.
