Thank you, but isn't this a forum?
I find it difficult to figure out where to post on this site.

Kitmaker consists of a lot of forums.
This one, the Armor/AFV part of Armorama, is mostly about armour, AFV's, trucks, artillery, basically anything military with tracks or wheels. There is also the Russo-Soviet forum which is more dedicated to Russian/Warzsaw-pact stuff.
Modeling in General is for general questions like: Is it best to paint before or after removing part from sprue?
I moved this thread from the forum indicated by the read arrow to the one indicated by the blue arrow:
You could see Kitmaker as a big discussion club where different interest groups have split up on different floors. You were on the ground floor in the "room" for general modeling chit-chat and I moved you upstairs to Armorama and into the room for Armor/AFV.
If you want to talk Dioramas you go outside to the corridor and the second room down is the Dioramas followed by Figure et.c.
Go into a suitable room and start posting :-)
The whole building:

The Armorama "floor":

The hangout for the aircraft and helicopter gang:

Personally I like the Tamiya wheels the best though they may be just a bit over-sized.
Several resin manufactures make wheels for both the CCKW and the Studebaker Deuces. And of course with resin you usually get raised sidewall lettering as well.
DEF Models UniRoyal offering
The HobbyBoss GoodYear plastic offering seems excellent (Though the center hub on the rear duals seems a bit too low.)
