(...) Actually it looks like the new Watto's junkyard set has 4 red ones. I can't tell from the picture if they're are large or medium. Also, didn't the insectoid set planetary prowler have 2 large blue ones? -Jon (23 years ago, 1-Feb-01, to lugnet.space)

The wheels in wattos junkyard are of the medium size (the middle ones in this set: (URL) So if the ones at eh back are large, and the ones on the mcm are super-large, then these are medium... Now that I realize the MCM has the huge ones, I want one! (...) (23 years ago, 1-Feb-01, to lugnet.space)

Okay, I've been sort of following this threat for a while and I'm utterly lost. Are there three or four sizes of the plastic tires? If there are four - and the MCM has these super giant wheels - doesn't it seem odd that Lego didn't use the MCM (...) (23 years ago, 2-Feb-01, to lugnet.space)

(...) I interpreted 'studs across' as the width of the wheel, not the diameter. The diameter of a giant wheel should hover around 10 studs, I think. I wish I had one on hand to measure. -Tim (23 years ago, 2-Feb-01, to lugnet.space)
