> I think an alternative to lots of casting would be to find some to 'stuff' the flexible rubber tyres. In the dark days when I was into truck (1/24th) modelling this was a common ploy. I have used epoxy in the past (which allows bulging of the tyres), I guess resin would doo too.
I was thinking about "stuffing" too, the trick is to find some stuffing that will not have a chemical reaction with the vinyl later on. Not sure wether the Trumpeter tyres are vinyl or rubber but I'm edging towards vinyl... Was epoxy OK in that regard
