RSO Road Wheel set
1120 production 1:35 Scale Set No. Z-05
Review by Terry Ashley
Details on the wheels is excellent with the correct contours of the rim disc and correctly shaped lightening holes along with the inner hub detail. The notable improvement over the DML RSO kit wheels is the better definition of the central hub detail that is very understated on DML wheels and grossly oversized on the Italeri kit wheels.
Resin wheel details
Fitting the resin wheels to the DML RSO kit is very straightforward without any modifications needed on the wheels or kit, simply fit the kit axle hubs (parts B10) into the resin wheel recess and then fit the wheels as per the kit instructions, all very simple. To fit the wheels to the older Italeri kits you will need to trim about 2mm off the kit axles to take the new wheels, you may need some other minor trimming but test fitting the wheels will determine this?
The increase in detail definition makes this an almost indispensable update set for anyone wanting a more accurate representation of the RSO road wheels than is possible from the stock kit wheels.
