Those are nice wheels, but $90US is a lot of money for a set of wheels

Here's a stretch: If you already have it, take a look at the AMT International 4300, It has (better) wheels than the Peterbilt, front and back and also has a steering front axle that you could use on your truck. I bought 3 of those kits only for the steering axle and the rims to install on other 1:25 scale trucks!

Yes it does, but I mentioned the International being able to steer as well because what you could do is swap out the whole axle assemblies, front and back altogether so you don't have the hassle of fitting the wheels to the axles. Makes things a little simpler. If they fit correctly of course. I'm planning to use those axles on the Chevy Titan I'll build later. I'm really into models that have functional steering. Cheaper option I guess. And you don't lose that functionality.
