Fujimi 17 inch Wire-Spoke Silver Wheel and Tyre Set - FJ-19355

This 1/24 scale wheel and tyre set reproduces 17 inch normal wire silver wheels for period-correct vehicle models, designed as a visual upgrade for static display constructions.

Wire-spoke wheels were a frequent option on many sports and touring cars through the early to mid 20th century. Built from a network of radial spokes linking hub and rim, they aimed to balance rigidity with lower rotating mass. Sizes such as 17 inches were adopted across a range of post-war cars, where spoke arrangement and finish played a key role in the vehicle's visual presence.

The set captures the visual features of normal wire wheels in a silver finish, focusing on spoke geometry and rim contour. The components are intended for scale appearance rather than functional load-bearing. Fitment requires checking wheel hub dimensions on the target 1/24 model; minor trimming or fitting small hub adapters may be necessary on some kits. Painting and weathering techniques can be applied to refine tone, accent spokes, or simulate period patina.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/24

A detailed wheel and tyre set that recreates 17 inch normal wire silver wheels at 1/24 scale, perfect for model builders aiming to tune the external look of a static model.

Switching to wire-spoke wheels alters the visual proportion and period authenticity of a model; pairing them with low-profile tyres or slight camber adjustments can emphasise a sporty or restored look.
Apply subtle washes and light dry-brushing to bring out spoke depth. Use fine brushes to avoid clogging between spokes and seal with a matte or satin clear to protect the finish.
Yes. Different rim widths or tyre profiles can alter clearance; check wheel offset and axle positioning on the kit and trim inner fenders if necessary to maintain proper clearance.
A subdued silver with light patina suits many period restorations. For a fresh-restored appearance use polished silver or clear lacquer to highlight the spokes.
