Are there any manufacturers that produce panzer III road wheels, with the tire separate from the wheel?

Have you tried Tank workshop am sure they do a load of wheel sets.

are they the same as the panzer iv if so you can find tristar makes the suspension for the panzer iv with the rubber separate from the wheel hub . but its discontinued only place you can find it is on E Bay .

I have found wheels sets, but they aren't multi-part.



No, they aren't. The hub cap is different.

Pz. III wheels are larger in diam than Pz. IV wheels, and have different hubs (as noted above). The wheel-pair structure is also markedly different - Pz. III pairs were joined with 6 tubular couplers or reinforcing rods - a distinct III look.

I've never seen any III wheels that come as kits with separate tires, but there is, I think, one or another resin set out of "burnt-out" III wheels, which would be just the metal hubs.

IF what you really want is a naked hub... for maybe one or perhaps 2 wheels... I would consider putting a kit III wheel onto a post and spinning it in my lathe or with a drill and gently scraping down the tire to leave the wheel rim with an inner flange?

Just a (tedious-sounding!) thought!

I just hate having to mask the tire and was looking for something a little less tedious. Thank you for the lathe suggestion. I have a Sher-line that I can do that with.

quick wheels makes a painting mask for the wheels .I did not know the size difference, a bit of info that I wont forget .
