To enhance the realism of your Type HY model in 1/24 scale, we have created a high-detail 3D-printed Pilote X 17R400 wheel set designed as a direct visual upgrade for Heller, EBBRO kits.
This set accurately reproduces the characteristic wheels used on the Type HY, known for their distinctive tread pattern and utilitarian design.
Developed using extensive reference material, the wheels capture the correct proportions, surface textures, and structural details, making them suitable for both civilian and service vehicle builds.
High Detail & Realistic Appearance
During development, special attention was paid to:
- accurate tire profile and tread pattern of the Pilote X 17R400
- correct wheel and rim geometry
- subtle sidewall textures and surface details
- clean mounting areas for easy installation
High-resolution photopolymer 3D printing delivers crisp edges, sharp tread definition, and fine detail that exceeds standard injection-molded kit parts.
The wheels are easy to paint, respond well to weathering techniques, and integrate naturally into diorama scenes.
This wheel set is an ideal upgrade for modelers aiming to add authenticity and visual depth to their Type HY builds.
Type HY — Iconic European Utility Vehicle
The Type HY was a light commercial vehicle widely used across Europe from the mid-20th century.
Known for its corrugated body panels, front-wheel-drive layout, and rugged simplicity, it served in a wide range of roles — from delivery vans and service vehicles to military and municipal transport.
Its unique design and long production life have made the Type HY a popular subject among scale modelers and vehicle enthusiasts alike.
