my apologies to the forum and questions I don't get here as often as I'd like
mostly becasue I forgot my username and password.
the wheels- the rear wheels were from a supplier who made them in several sizes with these being the closest to 1:6 scale and sadly for the last 2-3 years I have not found any. they are just under 5" diameter and they were found on ebay hobbies and models. I want to cast some correct size tires but don't know how to make a mold or what product to use in making them.
the front spokes are a little to big but-- theyare from topflite for flying models- when available they sell for $32.00 a pair.
there are other model aircraft sites selling whhels but they cost almost $350.00 a pair.
