Bit of an odd one this...
I want to know the diameter of the wheel hub and tyre of a 1/35 scale LAV or Stryker model.
Reason is I have a JGSDF armoured car kit, the tyres are plastic and I might replace them with vinyl but the only replacement set available is for LAV/Stryker.

I can't believe no-one on Dakka has a Stryker or LAV kit.

What's a tyre? Like a mini-hive tyrant?

Length: 6.98 Meters
Width: 2.7 Meters
Height: 2.8 Meters
Now I am about 5'10, 1.8 meters, so I am about the height of the average person, perhaps a hair shorter. In a picture of someone standing next to a Stryker the wheels go up to their waist, roughly. Ergo, the wheels are about .9 meters, give or take. 0.9 meter t ires also make sense, as about three would be the height of the vehicle itself. The picture I used for reference is here...

0.9/35=.0257=2.6 Centimeters :-) You should be able to find out the dimensions easily enough on the pack o' tires some way or another.
If anyone sees flaws in my math, don't hesitate to correct me. I swear my brother got 103% of the math genes.

T ires.

I was hoping someone might have a kit and be able to measure the wheels.

It will be 1/35 the size of a real life wheel hub and tyre.
Also the stryker uses the 1200 R20 CTIS tyres, you could search for the real life stats for them.

Good idea. I'll research that. Automatically Appended Next Post: Tacobake wrote:"tyres". You can't make that gak up.
According to Wikipedia, about 85% of the Canadian population have some knowledge of English.
