FAQ

Give Your 1/14 Truck a Realistic Matte Metal Upgrade

If you want to add a factory-correct appearance to a 1/14 scale RC tractor unit or semi-trailer, the Tamiya 56519 Metal Plated Wheels in matte finish are a strong choice. The muted surface mimics brushed steel or aluminum and contrasts well with glossy parts for a more scale-real look.

Main Advantages

Matte Finish: Delivers a subdued metallic appearance similar to real truck wheels.
Hex Hub Design: Allows straightforward installation and a solid, rattle-free fit.
30mm Width: Matches tyres made for this width to ensure correct seating and handling.

Compatibility Notes

The Tamiya 56519 wheels are made to suit 3-axle trailers that use single-axle 30mm wheels. Depending on your trailer you may need multiple sets:

56319 3-Axle Reefer Semi-Trailer: Needs 2 sets of 56519 plus 1 set of 56520.
56326 40-Foot Container Semi-Trailer: Needs 3 sets of 56519.

Will these wheels accept common 1/14 tyres?

These wheels are intended for 30mm width tyres only, so use tyres specified for that width to avoid poor fitment.

Do I need special hubs or adapters?

No special adapters are usually required since the hex hub design fits standard 1/14 hex drive hubs, but check your axle specs before fitting.

How many sets do I need for a 3-axle trailer?

Refer to your trailer model; for example the 56326 container trailer takes three sets of 56519, while the 56319 reefer needs two sets plus a 56520 set.
