Type-3 14 Inch Tuned Wheel and Tyre Kit for Static Models

This Aoshima 20297 item is a 1/24 scale Type-3 14-inch wheel and tyre collection provided as tuned parts for display-focused vehicle models. They serve as aftermarket detailing pieces to alter the exterior look and stance on compatible kits.

Smaller 14-inch wheels were a common choice on compact and early small cars, where narrower diameters and snug arches were typical. The Type-3 aftermarket approach re-creates a shallow dish with narrow rims, reflecting period tuning tastes and keeping proportions suitable for vintage compact model chassis.

Builder guidance and fit notes

Designed for 1/24 plastic vehicle kits that take separate wheels and tyres, the Type-3 profile mimics the scaled proportions of smaller aftermarket rims and is intended for non-running display models. Minor trimming of hubs or inner wings may be necessary depending on the donor kit. Builders often use basic surface prep, masking and hobby paints to finish the parts before installation.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/24

This wheel and tyre pack brings an authentic Type-3 14-inch aesthetic to 1/24 builds, appealing to modellers focused on exterior tuning and collectors seeking display-accurate wheel options.

Yes, the set is presented as separate wheel and tyre parts in the Type-3 14-inch format for 1/24 scale kits. Check the product photos to confirm exact piece count.
Expect light modifications on axle hubs or inner fenders on some donor kits. The amount varies with kit design and how tight the original wheel wells are.
Basic hobby supplies such as fine sandpaper, primer, acrylic paints and cyanoacrylate glue are useful to prepare and secure the wheels and tyres to a display standard.
The Type-3 geometry is aimed at a lowered, classic tuned look. Final stance will depend on tyre profile, wheel offset and how the assembled parts sit relative to the kit body.
