For some reason I was under the impression that the Tiger (P) and Bergetiger (P) did not have rubber road wheels. I thought they were all steel wheels. The DML instructions say they do have rubber rims. So, did they have rubber road wheels?

Thanks in advance,

Shaun

Howdy Shaun. The wheel surface that contacts the track and the wheel portion that bolts to the hub are steel. There is a rubber connection between these two pieces that is not visible in 1/35 scale that Dragon is for some reason refering to. Out here.

Thanks guys. That's what I thought. Just thought I had better check to be sure. I guess I can safely start the Berge.
