The rubber road wheels of this kit are pretty much covered by the tracks, but there is still an opportunity to weather them while still building the kit to show the insides of these wheels in a used and distressed state. We are only looking at some slight clean up and 30 minutes of construction so far. Here it is all put together on the lower hull. This suspension doesn't need to be glued on - simply pushed on to the cross-shaped fittings to fit. The simple set up is seen here below - both on the hull and severely not yet added on below that. You COULD drill these all out, but the holes are not cylindrical, and they can be weathered in a way that they appear hollow so I will leave mine out.

The kit's instructions tell you to start at the suspension so who am I to argue? the wheels of the real thing are spoked, but the kit ones are simplified.
