I went to build stage 103, the right rear wheel, and found that the outer barrel is too large and won't sit in the tyre. I tried everything, taking it apart, trimming the tyre a bit but no luck so I removed the left wheel which was fine and took that apart to find that the same barrel on this side was smaller. In the pics the correct left wheel is on the left and the incorrect right wheel is on the right.

Yes, that doesn't look right.
I had no problems with that stage so I suggest you contact c/s for a replacement.
Shouldn't be an issue.

Maybe i should ask for a stage 99 as 99 and 103 are the same but if they give me another 103 then I could get the same problem Senna mclaren mp4/4 build complete mp4/4 build http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=12029

This is ridiculous, they've sent me another 103 and again, it's the same!! In this pic, the one on the right is the stage 99 and the other 2 are the 2 103 stages.

Can you post a full 'sideways on' picture of the wheels so we can see the differences up close?
It seems really strange.

I'm at work now so I'll do it tomorrow. I contacted cs and they said that they are going to send me a stage 99. Not sure that'll be any different as surely they come from the same machine. I reckon it's a bad batch. Senna mclaren mp4/4 build complete mp4/4 build http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=12029

I've tried to get some better pics roy. Basically the plastic inner barrel is too large in stage 103 but correct size in stage 99. Stage 99 is on the right Steve279021 attached the following image(s): Senna mclaren mp4/4 build complete mp4/4 build http://forum.model-space...spx?g=posts&t=12029
