Can anyone tell me who makes aftermarket tracks for Tamiya's Sdkfz251/1?

Thanks!

Hello,
There are several sets of Sdkfz 251 Aftermarket tracks out there. Like Rob pointed out there are the AFV Club ones. IMHO they are a real pain with the rubber track pads they come with. There is also a set from Link Model Workshop that are identical to the AFV offering. I have used Fruil tracks in the construction of several 251s. They offer a standard rubber shoed version and then a all metal cleated version. I have also used a set made by Model Kasten. The Modelkasten are not workable though. For the the detail and the fact they work get the Fruils they are tops in regard to the 251in my book.
