Tamiya's US Accessory Set has spare Abrams roadwheels, and a bunch of other great gear.

The older set was recently reissued with a couple mechanic figures.  It can also still be found on eBay pretty regularly.

I have a ton, well not a ton, but probably 4 sets of that old Tamiya set. I have a box full of Abrams parts. I have always wanted to build a perfect Abrams, engine and all...never did. I have the old Verlinden engine kit, the old dragon kit, and probably atleast 3 unbuilt Abrams in the box.

Wanted to clarify about what i said was the Verlinden engine kit. It's not Verlinden, it is the Kirin 28506 engine kit. I was saving it for retirement, but it might be worth more to someone else.

The Tamiya kit that has the road wheels is #35141. I have at least 4 sets of those. It has the road wheels, ammo, ammo boxes, acetylene and oxy bottles, water cans, crew figures, light and crew served weapons, a vice , and flashlights, canteens, etc. Some of the ammo has been painted, some still on the sprue. I cleaned out my closet during Christmas break and found a lot of stuff from 30 years ago.
