Scale-Accurate Matte Wheels for Your Tractor Unit

For hobbyists aiming for a true-to-life appearance, Tamiya supplies the 56520 RC Metal Plated Wheels in a matte finish. These wheels fit 1/14 scale tractor trucks and semi-trailers and are intended to replace the kit's gloss-finished wheels for a more authentic look.

Tyre Size and Bearing Requirements

The Tamiya 56520 wheels take tyres with a 30mm width and are secured using 1150 ball/metal bearings on the axle. A single purchase includes one pair of matte metal-plated wheels.

Which Sets Work with Common Trailers

For the 3-Axle Reefer Semi-Trailer (Item 56319), fit two sets of Item 56519 and one set of Item 56520.
For the 40-Foot Container Semi-Trailer (Item 56326), three sets of Item 56519 are required.

Do these wheels need special hubs?

No special hubs are required, but the wheels are intended to be mounted with 1150 ball/metal bearings for correct fit and rotation.

How many wheels are included per pack?

Each pack contains one pair of wheels, suitable for replacing two original kit wheels on a tractor axle.

Can I paint these matte wheels?

If you wish to alter the finish, prep the surface carefully and use paints suited for plated metal finishes; test on one wheel first to confirm adhesion and appearance.

Are these compatible with standard 1/14 trailer sets?

Yes, they are designed for standard 1/14 tractor and trailer assemblies that use 30mm tyres and 1150 bearings, as noted in the trailer combination guidance.
