Quinta Studio QT48036 I-16 Wheels (late type) with separate hubs and weighted tires (all kits) 1/48 is a top-quality set of modeling accessories dedicated to the 1/48 scale models of the Soviet Polikarpov I-16 fighter aircraft. This product is intended for modelers who value accurate reproduction of details in historical aircraft from the first half of the 20th century.

The Polikarpov I-16, known as the "Ishachok," was an iconic Soviet fighter, widely used during the Spanish Civil War, the Battle for China, the Winter War, and on the Eastern Front during World War II. Produced from 1933 to 1942, it became a symbol of Soviet aviation in the interwar period and the early years of World War II. These aircraft were actively operated by the USSR, as well as by Spain, China, and Finland.

The Quinta Studio QT48036 set has been designed for maximum detail and historical accuracy. It consists of the late variant wheels with separate hubs and “weighted” tires. This arrangement gives the model exceptional authenticity, especially when displayed on a base—the characteristic flattening of the tire tread closely mimics the effect of a real aircraft's weight resting on the ground.
