I just finished my Tow truck, 8462. I absolutely love those big "metal" wheels... I noticed 8428 also has those wheels. Is this set any good or is most of the money just for a CD with some dumb game? The set is still way over $50 here in the (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-00, to lugnet.technic)

I like the 8428 a lot. I kept the main model together for months before breaking it down. It has a cute switching mechanism in the back that snaps the rear suspension between low and high positions. I liked the CD, too. You pick your vehicle, go (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-00, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Intertoys had 8432 on sale for Hfl. 50,00 last month, but I don't know if it's still avaible anywhere. 8432 is the same as 8428 but without CD. Scroll a bit back in lugnet.local.nl for some discussion about it. Rengenier (25 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I got the 8428 for the wheels too, and then I bought the 8462 as well. The 8428 is an okay set. The back end is very flimsy. It can barely hold together if you apply enough force to actually deflect the springs. If you try to drive this from (...) (25 years ago, 28-Jan-00, to lugnet.technic)

Can someone give me a good estimate on the tire size on these wheels? I know they dont have a size stamped on the sidewalls (Do those tires even HAVE sidewalls? :) ) If you could measure one for me I would appreciate it... Metrically if possible (...) (25 years ago, 28-Jan-00, to lugnet.technic)
