Panzer Art RE35-356 is a high-quality detail set designed for Chevrolet LRDG vehicle models in 1/35 scale. The set consists of exceptionally accurately reproduced Firestone 2 type road wheels, made from high-quality resin.

These wheels replicate the original tires used during World War II by vehicles operated by the Long Range Desert Group (LRDG) – the renowned British special forces unit. The LRDG operated mainly in North Africa between 1940-1943, conducting long-range raids and reconnaissance missions behind Axis lines. The Chevrolet 30cwt was one of the primary vehicles used by this unit, and the correct choice of tires – such as Firestone – ensured effective movement across the challenging desert terrain.

The set from Panzer Art stands out with its almost microscopic precision of detail, such as the tread pattern, manufacturer's markings, and a realistic depiction of tire wear. No plastic version of the wheels commonly available in model kits captures such excellent surface texture and the characteristic indentations and protrusions found on the original. This set is intended for self-painting and assembly, providing ample opportunity for customizing your model.
