The quality of the resin casting is flawless and bubble free.  The wheels already have holes in the center for mounting on the landing gear axles.  Detail on both sides of the wheels is very crisp and well done.  All three of these wheels have tread on the tires.

The wheel mask painting instructions are well laid out and easy to follow.

These arte very well done wheels and they will add detail to this critical and obvious part of your next big P-38.  

You can purchase this and other fine resin detail items directly from Aires or from the many retailers that carry their products.  A list of some of those retailers can be found here.
