North Star Models have announced a series of Messerschmitt Bf 109 landing gear upgrade sets in 1:48 and 1:32 covering all variants from the Bf 109B through to the Bf 109G-2:
"New from North Star Models - Highly detailed resin wheels and weighted tyres sets for the Bf 109 in 1/32 and 1/48 scales. The weighted tyres correctly match the mounting angle of wheels for the main landing gear. The CAD model was developed by Art Skazka Co. based on factory drawings and dimensions taken directly from original spare parts for Bf 109 wheels.

Sets NS48018 and NS32007 - 1/48 and 1/32 Wheels & Weighted Tyres for the Messerschmitt Bf 109B, C, E (early) have "Metzeler" tyres, lightweight perforated spoked outer hubs and correct pattern early inner hubs.

Sets NS48019 and NS32008 for the Bf 109E-1 to 'E-4 are similar to the previous sets, but have "Continental" main landing gear tyres.

Sets NS48020 and NS32009 for Bf.109E-4/E-7 have "Continental" tyres, light-weight wheels but a different inner wheel hub, typical for the 'E-4 and 'E-7 series.

Sets NS48021 and NS32010 for the Bf 109F-2, 'F-4 and 'G-2 have "Continental" tyres, "heavy" wheels (without holes between the spokes), and inner wheel parts typical for these versions."
