Does anybody know how the Tank Workshop tires for the HEMTT are? I have a built M997 with some interior detailing, but with the stock tires. I was planning an ODS dio, but during my move to NY, the base got messed up and I abandoned the project. Some time in the future I plan to finish/reassemble it and probably attempt to scratchbuild all of the chassis/steering components.

Paul,

Can not atest for their accuracy, but can tell you that the guy who does the casting (joe B at TMD) does a wonderfull job.

Order these in confidence from Tiger Model Designs.

Thanks guys, I did mean the M977. I had a chance to buy a set of them at AMPS East for 20 bucks, but held off on account of hearing some negative stuff about some AM tires for the HEMTT - or was I dreaming?
I will try Tiger Model Designs when I'm done with all the unfinished stuff on my workbench.
