Fujimi 1/24 17 inch Normal Wire Silver Tyre & Wheel Set - FJ-19355

This 1/24 scale wheel and tyre set is produced to represent 17 inch normal wire silver wheels for period-correct vehicle models, intended as an external detail upgrade for static display kits.

Wire-spoke wheels were commonly used on numerous sports and touring cars throughout the mid 20th century. They comprised multiple radial spokes connecting hub to rim to provide a mix of stiffness and lighter rotating mass. The 17 inch size was standard on a range of post-war European and American cars, where spoke pattern and finish defined much of the vehicle's visual character.

The set reproduces the outward appearance of normal wire wheels in silver, concentrating on spoke geometry and rim profile. Components are intended for aesthetic accuracy rather than functional load-bearing. Correct fitment requires matching the wheel hub dimensions on the chosen 1/24 model; small trimming or hub adapters might be required for some axles. Painting and weathering can be used to fine-tune shade, highlight spokes, or simulate age appropriate to the subject.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/24

An appearance-focused wheel and tyre set that renders 17 inch normal wire silver wheels at 1/24 scale, well suited to modellers seeking period-accurate exterior detail.

Measure the target kit's hub diameter and compare to the wheel bore. Check inner clearance for brake drums or suspension parts and allow space for the chosen axle thickness.
Yes, small hub adapters or bushings can be used to bridge differences in axle diameter. Ensure adapters are centred and glued or fixed to avoid runout.
Clearance depends on rim width and offset. Test-fit before permanent fixing and trim inner surfaces if necessary to avoid contact with detailed brake or suspension parts.
Use a temporary axle and rotate the wheel to check for wobble. If needed, add thin shims or carefully sand the hub seat until the wheel runs true before final bonding.
