Hi everybody,
I've bought 2 Stuart kits: AFV club M3A3, and Academy M3A1. In the Academy kit there are two types of wheels, the spoked ones, and the disk type M5 wheels.
Can I use the disk-type wheels for the AFV club Stuart, or is it a non existing variant, then?
I'd like to know, 'cos I think it would be nice to make something different.
Greetz, John.

Heres a comprehensive US vehicle site i found, I don't think it covers the specifics of the wheels...

The M3 stuart link is quite impressive...as are the others. All your specs etc....
Some good pics too, just clink the pics and you'll get more. It looks to me from these pics ( http://afvdb.50megs.com/usa/pics/m3stuart.html ) that the spoked wheels were in both variants.
Hope this is of help to you dragon.

I wouldn't use them because from what I have read Academy didn't get the look of these wheels right ...You are better to stick with the AFV Club wheels.
