Update:
After looking for spare rc Stuart roadwheels and finding none I figured the next best thing was to make my own. So I took the un-used spare road wheel that I didn't use on my Stuart and modified it for use on my carrier. I know the carriers use a 6 spoked wheel but for now 5 spoked wheels will do. I made a silicone mold of the modified road whell and and did a test pour of the road wheel useing polyester resin. I'm pleased with the results. Here is a pic of the mold, the original wheel, and a 1st pour from the mold. I inserted sections of straightened out paper clips in each of the spokes before the resin cured.
