tyre/tire selection

[zimluura]

The inner radius and width will vary a bit in the generated wheels.

just so you're aware: the outer ring of the wheel edge should vary more than the inner. when i got the wheel edge function uploaded i reduced the tire's sidewall to compensate for the overlap that is typical for a wheel flange.

The wheel mesh radius should be close or equal to outer rim radius to avoid holes in the wheel+rim mesh. The wheel mesh center/origin should 0.0.

you mean y=0.0, and z=0.0, correct? the .blend file you posted has a negative x value for the hub. or, am i completely misunderstanding you?

also, it looks like the .blend file has a smaller wheel mesh than you suggest. it looks like its outer vertexes along the mesh radius are closer to the inner radius on the edge template. in this blend file, there are small holes at the end of each spoke (you gotta be at extreme angles to see them). this can be fixed by up-scaling the wheel mesh in the center as you suggest. is that the correct thing to do on 5_spoke_m?


sorry for lots of questions. but, this is some precise stuff so i want to make sure i understand completely.
