The wheels.  Yes I can see why you made them to take the kit tyres. Maybe drawing up another correct set of narrower ones complete with the tyres on them might be worth a look at. The wheels and tyres can be painted.

I made this for Revell BMW I8 because both the tires and wheels looked awful. I wanted also to have the wheels used in the prototype rather than the regular wheels. I did also wheels and tires set for my teardrop trailer. 




Meanwhile there is flexible printable resin that looks like rubber. I have not tried it yet but it looks nice in the reviews.

When this is finished I will turn back to the E-type. I will probably make an MK-III.

I would love, love, love to see Tamiya do an e type. The Gunze kit is nice, but only available as a roadster. 

 

There are nice diecast by white box. They cost one-third of what a Tamiya kit would cost. As I said in another post, after the frustration I experienced with the Revell kit, I put the E-Type on my to-print list. It will most probably be a MK-III. I have to finish the Countach prototype first.

The wire wheels of the Jag are awesome. Great built.
