Bob's M1070

The tires from rc4wd came in, Rock Crusher XT 1.55's. The diameter is about 94mm which is about spot on for the real Michelins in scale. I'd have preferred to use their mil-spec tires but they arent available in this size.

Sassgrunt on here was kind enough to send me some spare Tamiya Humvee wheels he had, And they do fit, but they compress the sidewall a bit, and didnt look quite right.
I found a silver touring car wheel in my bits box which was the same diameter as the humvee wheel, but wider, but still didnt look right.
I borrowed a wheel from a mates Tamiya Mini, and they fit way better. So i've ordered some black dish mini wheels to use. I'll be making hubcabs for them, which will be easier to attach to dish wheels.
