This set consists of a pair of smooth tread mainwheels, as fitted to most Birdcage Corsairs, as well as many wartime F4U-1 and 1a aircraft. Accurate resin cast mainwheels with logos and tire data are finished off with well fitting, super detailed, 3D printed wheel hub covers.

BR48116 - F4U Corsair Postwar Tread Mainwheels - 1/48

BR48117 - F4U Corsair Stamped Hub Mainwheels - 1/48

This set consists of a pair of postwar circumferential tread mainwheels with one piece stamped metal wheel hubs as often fitted to later postwar F4U-4, -5, and AU-1 aircraft, as well as some postwar -1 and -1a Corsairs as well.

Most F4U and F6F warbirds and air racers are fitted these wheels, as I suspect they stood up to time better than the cast variety. These are highly detailed with tire logos and data as well as accurate hubs and brake detail. Resin cast wheels.
