This wheel came about when DB Sport & Scale in the UK came to us to create a rubber based tire for their Hurricane wheel, which was a foam part originally. So, this became the first wheel with treads for Williams Brothers, and it worked out nicely.
The wheel is based on the British design used on the Hawker Hurricane, and possibly others, with a 4 spoke style hub, and 5 straight treads. The hub bolts together with 3, M3 x 25mm screws. The design uses a single wheel collar hidden in the center of the hub, and hides the outer axle end.
A robust wheel that could be used for other models as well, and perform nicely.
All production is now done in the US right here at Williams Brothers Model Products!
