Re: 1/6 tyre question
Hi andy, can't see why they wouldn't work for the kubel, might have to check the rim size though, as for the schwimmwagon I haven't seen any aftermarket ones, I was looking for a set as the ones that come with the kit aren't very grippy being made of soft plastic

Re: 1/6 tyre question
Hi Ice thanks mate. I have bought a Dragon Kubelwagen , RC converted but it has the DAK tyres . The Dragon Kubel and Schwimwagen tyres / rims look the same . So I could put the Schwimwagen ones onto my Kubel and look out for better ones for the Schwimwagen ?
I have a comparison of the Dragon Schwimwagen tyre and the resin (no good to us tho) improved one . I will just get it sorted to post.
Thanks Andy

Re: 1/6 tyre question
Here is the Dragon 1:6 Schwimwagen tyre against a more accurate resin one . Can any one find a rubber one the same size / style ?

Andy
The Schwimwagen and Kubel wheels / tyres seem the same . So I could use my Schwimwagen ones on my Kubel and hope to find better ones for the Schwimwagen . I could possibly use the DAK rims to fit the wider tyres . I will look at them to see if there the same when it comes.
