Here all the colors for the wheel

Wow. Nice work.
There are some nice ones among them.

I think is a risk changing the wheel color. I didn't found problems when building the Monster Truck, but way before when drawing the Packard Eight (not cancelled just delayed) I remember with some wheel colors some elements of the track changed too. Can't remember but maybe the pines or something like that. Just test the colors in track before releasing.

That would be interesting to know. I've been testing if changes in track material changes behaviour but I found no evidence of it.
So if changes to the tires affect the game it would be interesting to research.

We have a reference chart now.

Try the colors of water, trees and decorative elements first.

I was working with wheels just now.
and Ryoma's list is very handy. (i could not figure out how he meant the numbers though)
So i made a renumbering of the list as they are in stressed and i added wheel color 0 (default)

If you look for a color, the one you select in stressed is the outside surface, the one below is the inside rim and the third is the hubcap.
nice Gray/black wheels with color hubcaps are:
7: light blue
19 :  light yellow
38: standard wheels
39 : teal blue
43: red
56: gray on gray (dark)
57: gray on gray (less dark)
58: mustard yellow
76: gray on gray (light)
77: gray on gray (even lighter)
92 : gray grill

I tried a car with just wheels.
(just for fun, but also to see how useful it is in car making)

The drawing of the wheel is programmed to be on an outside of a car.
So from the front it looks good, but from behind the drawing of the wheels goes wrong.
This did not change with Z-bias.
The back wheels have an inner copy to serve as axel.
(i tried it with the front wheels too, but I messed that up)

Useless car, but nice experiment.
Below two pictures, from the front it looks fine. But from the back it doesn't.

That is indeed very interesting!  Experiments like this frequently result in discoveries and new ideas. I should get into some car making. I won't be as good as the artists we have here, but something interesting has to come out of it :)
