I always like to put wire landing gear in the wings ..I make a lite ply doubler for the wing ribs..spar to the leading edge, then put in some landing gear blocks..I have had a few people tell me they thought the plane settles better than the stock gear when landing, also the landing gear width is a bit wider.....I think it makes the plane look nice..and it leaves the original gear area open for maybe a camera mount,or even bomb or parachute drop. Just bolt it on when you want to use it...
