1/32 Scale Wheels Sizing

Savage GT · 25th-Apr-20, 07:40 AM

Hi people, As I was working out scale wheel sizes to satisfy a recent urge to make some cars look right, I thought it might be helpful to any others that felt the need Wrench

All sizes are rounded to the nearest 0.1mm.
Measurement is the outside diameter of the visible part of the wheel once a tyre is fitted, not the actual size manufacturers' list, as that is usually the largest diameter.
This does vary depending on the manufacturer, but as a guide a slot.it 16.5mm wheel will have a visible diameter of 14.3 making it a 1/32 scale 18" wheel.

17.9mm @ tyre rim = 21"
17.1mm @ tyre rim = 20"
16.3mm @ tyre rim = 19"
15.9mm @ tyre rim = 18.5"
15.5mm @ tyre rim = 18"
14.7mm @ tyre rim = 17"
13.9mm @ tyre rim = 16"
13.1mm @ tyre rim = 15"
12.3mm @ tyre rim = 14"
11.5mm @ tyre rim = 13"
10.7mm @ tyre rim = 12"
9.9mm @ tyre rim = 11"
9.1mm @ tyre rim = 10"

For clarity, the measurement is "D" as shown on Pendle Slot listing for thee new Staffs wheels. Link
