 Subject:  3inch M5 gun wheelsList thread.  
  
 Date:  Nov 19, 2006
 From:  Alex Borsboom 
Hi guys,

I'm considering to use Italerei's 105mm howitzer and some parts from the spare box to build a 3inch M5 AT gun to put behind my (early, 1942) M2 halftrack.
There's one problem I'm stuck with and that's the Italerei wheels/tyres. All pics I have show different tyres, so are the Italerei tyres correct but rare? And if they're not correct, are there any replacements, be it resin or from another kit?
I do have Trakz 37mm, but it looks so tiny behind the half track and Resicasts 6 pounder is twice as expensive as the Dragon kit, so I hope this 'economic' M5 solution is a possibility!
Hope some one can help, thanks in advance

Cheers,
Alex
