Here are two of the twenty road wheels mounted on their axle. The
wheels are 5 ½" by 1 3/8" in size which works out great for a T34 in 1/6
scale.

Since this design I came up with doesn't allow for easy removal of
individual wheels at a time. I pre-drilled these holes in each wheel hub
for future oiling if required. As is without oil, the nylon hub wheels
turn really well on the axles.
