In this tutorial i'll show you how to model different tire configurations with the same tire tread. I apologize because it's my very first tutorial and forgive any mistake or missunderstatments. Because of my interesting about scale models, i take the decision to model and 3d print a wender wracker truck for my collection from level zero. So i decide to model and 3d print the wheels too. I believe that this tutorial isn't something new or supprising, but i believe that someday for someone could be useful. Thank you for your time. With respect the author George Stefanidis.

To do this, I use two different methods (one for assemblies and the other for multibody parts). I know you already know many of the steps, but I'll post them anyway in case someone needs them:
