Doepke Model Wheels,on"Tru-Scale"

I have two Carter "Tru-Scale",(predecessor to Ertl Toys),1/16th-scale I.H.C. trucks. one is a '57 S-Series 160,and the other is a '59 "B-160" Series. Both are tandems. I like the "Tru-Scale trucks,except for the wheels. These Doepke wheels/tires are 1/15th-scale,(or close to it). I may have to up grade the frames to make the tires clear the fenders,(the front axles steer),but I'll carve the transmissions/transfer case,and make them 6X6! Here are the wheels and tires for the project...Scroll-down,and you'll see them....http://www.ebay.com/itm/24-DOEPKE-RUBBE ... =true&rt=n
