Oh my yes. :twisted:

I chucked some Aoshima 19s under it for a mockup, way too small! This is either on the opposite end of the out-of-scale spectrum as the Aoshima wheels,, or the car is just really huge in real life :lol:

I've never heard of Academy models either, but it's nice to see something different being modeled aye!

I would imagine the stock wheels are either 18” or 19”. How do they compare in size the the Aoshima wheels?

I did not see that's a Academy :oops: They do WWII planes kits and WWII Tank kits, I have some 1/72 scale planes but have heard that there Tank kits can be trouble.

Did somebody whisper "Rocket Bunny"?
17" or 18" depending on the spec.
Think Academy have been around for awhile, not sure how long tho.

Yeah the tyres don't match the boxart at all, as they rarerely do, so the wheels are much smaller that they appear on the box, but the sidewall make up some wheel-tyre combo diameter for the stock version :lol:

Dunno about Rocket Bunny :lol: That'd be crazy cool though!
