This latest release from Aires features a pair of resin wheels with paint masks for the P-40 from Academy.

The quality of the resin casting is flawless and bubble free.  You get 2 main wheels and painting masks for those 2 wheels.  These are smooth tread tires and the detail on the wheels is crisply cast.  The instructions help you with using the painting masks.   

These are quite the nice set of resin wheels and would be the perfect addition to the 1/72 Academy P-40 and I'm sure they could be used on other P-40 kits as well.  

You can purchase this and other fine resin detail items directly from Aires or from the many retailers that carry their products.  A list of some of those retailers can be found here.

I would like to thank Aires for providing me with this review sample.
