sandy base trial fit, the front tire and the rest need more sand in the tread. Thin smear of PVA glue and an even sprinkle of fine sand should fix them.

Are the wheels glued on static or do they rotate - if the latter then a thin smear of glue and role them across a tray of sand for a more authentic effect...????

Edited to add: or roll them before fitting to the model...?
