In my opinion i would take the aber sets and friul tracks.The modelkasten tracks are not accurate,they are too flat!The hight of the track is not enough.The same problem apeared on the Königstiger tracks.I use a special liquid to creat a rusty apearence.Its name is black brass.
All Sturmtigers were converted from older chasis.Look the prototype with earlier tracks and weehls.My vehicle(under construction)is an western front one.Used by the 1001 sturmtiger kompanie and pictured in Bonn.Schiffer booklet of that vehicle.
Page 45.No zimmerit with extra armor on the front.Counterweigth on the barrel,aditional tracks on the side armor.Excelent picture.
The eduard set is too old and not good.
Good luck on your model.
