Little help needed P-38 wheel size

Sun Nov 22, 2009 7:55 pm

Someone came to me seeking this info and I don't have it. Was hoping someone here might be able to help me out.
Need the width and diameter of the main and nose wheels. Also the height of the tire from the wheel to top of tread and the width of the tire. So if someone has a tape measure and access to a P-38 I sure would appreciate the help.

Thanks,

Mike

well...
