I just ordered the Trumpeter Maz 537 , and found several posts about the incorrect wheels. I found a link to a set for the tractor from Armory..wondered if anyone had used them?
Heres the link...http://armory.in.ua/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=30&products_id=16955&osCsid=73c31dd130df74847af5229f73e1643c
Thanks for any help! The kit was the late version...

I know Voyager has a Jumbo Set with 2 sets of PE (1 for the tractor and the other for the trailer) and has a Resin set of Wheels.
The only problem is that I didn't find a single online store that has this set...

I did a review on the Tank Workshop set... here. I also have the armory set, will have to dig them out tom give you the review on them. If you are not that upset with the accuracy, the kit wheels are ok and the TW set are nice resin stand-ins...

Thanks for input..I read your review of the TW wheels, they look good . Do you have any experience w/ the Voyager set for this ?

Thanks for the link Jeff !!
I asked them if they had the Voyager Set in stock, I might get it soon...
If not I'll wait, too many kits on the bench so no worries...
But I really want to get this set to start the MAZ maybe in 2012...

It looks great I agree too.
Even the single PE sets are hard to find, backordered everywhere..
I hope they have it in stock.
I have been planning the MAZ with a T-55 (both kits with PE & Resin updates) for almost 2 yrs gathering info, pics and the AM extras.
I was hoping to build it after clearing the bench, stopping the Campaigns and getting a full year on that build.
I'm not sure if it will be done.. Anyway thanks again !!

I'm glad it helped.
For the pics as you can see most of them are from Arab countries and on different transports, Scania, Mercedes not MAZ.
Maybe on Ukranian or Russian versions.

They don't..
They just answered my email, they don't have it in stock.
Try the individual Voyager sets:
VOY35277
VOY35279
I've been searching for these for awhile, but still no luck... online stores, LHS,...nothing.

I found the separate items at Lucky Model, and yes they have it in stock...
Careful there are 4 sets:
1 - Jumbo Set includes 1 PE set for the cabin + 1 PE set for trailer and a Resin Set for the wheels.
2- VOY35277 MAZ Cabin set for early/middle version
3- VOY35278 MAZ Cabin set for late version
4- VOY35279 MAZ trailer (both versions)
I still haven't ordered it, I might do it this week, the shipping to Europe isn't cheap... I'll check my budget this week.
