For an English translation, just press the Stars and Stripes button (one of three buttons to click on) above the basket.
Try this:

Perhaps I didn't look thoroughly, but I couldn't find DKLM wheels on rctank.de.

I did find the
HQ wheels for the JS-2, however. Maybe they're the same.

43rd, I emailed rctank.de and unfortunately they only had 3 single wheels, HOWEVER one of the awesome members here PM'd me he had a set he no longer needed so I think my crisis is over.
I just could NOT build my JS-2 without realistic metal on metal movement.

The drive for perfection is a defining characteristic (and often the downfall

) of many of our members, I suspect.
On the plus side, members often accrue huge collections of spares and upgrade parts over the years- some gathering cobwebs, I guess, by now. I'll probably never use all the oddments I've assembled.
Glad that that vast pool of parts out there has provided the parts 'fix' you need.

Nice. Glad you were able to get them! Cast is nice, but when in doubt, 3D printed is a viable alternative...
(Not a Tamiya however... From a fellow Tanker...)
