Lockheed P-38 Lightning Wheels set type 2 Scale 1:32 ResKit RS32-0221 for Aircraft Model Kit

ResKit RS32-0221 Wheels Set is a type 2 replacement wheels set for the Lockheed P-38 Lightning in 1/32. This set is aimed at a cleaner wheel look with consistent hub definition, helping the landing gear area stay crisp after primer and thin paint coats.

On a twin-boom aircraft with prominent main gear, uniform wheel detail and a tidy finish around hubs and tires can make the underside look more balanced without changing the kit layout.

For modelers: dry-fit the wheels on your kit axles early and confirm the wheel style matches your project intent before paint. Wash parts before priming, then build color in thin coats to preserve edges on hubs and tire detail.

FAQ

What does "type 2" mean for this wheels set?

It identifies the wheel style provided in this set. Compare the wheel look and mounting points with your kit parts during dry-fit to make sure it matches your project (kit-dependent).

Is this set tied to a specific kit brand?

Your provided data lists Any / Universal. Final fit depends on the kit axle diameter and locating points, so dry-fit before paint and adjust only if needed (kit-dependent).

How can I keep wheel detail sharp after painting?

Wash parts before priming, prime lightly, and build color in thin coats. Add definition with a controlled wash around hub features rather than heavy overall weathering.
