Would anybody out there be kind enough to provide me with a measurement in millimeters of 1/35 scale german Panther tank main outer road wheels ?( taken off an Italeri, Dragon ou perhaps tamiya kit)I need some wheels for another projects but I need to know the diameter to prevent purchasing the kit for nothing.
Best regards…and thanks !

The actual diameter of a Panther road wheel is 860mm. 1/35th of that is 24.57mm. If whichever model isn’t that diameter, then we have a problem. [;)]
Thanks Peridexion !
Your help is greatly appreciated !

No problem. I like questions I don’t have to research! [swg]
Have to make a minor distinctino here. The Tamiya Panther G has the wheels, including the rubber rims, at 24 mm (the .7 is likely there, I just don’t have anything sensitive enough to measure it!) but the rims alone without the tires are 19mm.
Not sure if the dimensions would be the same for a Late Panther with all steel rims or not. [:D]
According to Jentz and Doyle, they should be the same.
Glad to see Tamiya got the dimensions right! As always Peridexion, your resource availability never fails! [:D]
