Tamiya blunder with s2000

Is it just me or is there a major mstake withe the wheels on Tamiya S2000 kit??? Check it out - the spokes on the wheels are angled slightly and they are supposed to angle towards the rear of the car on the real thing. But in the kit each wheel is identical so u end up with the spokes going towards the rear on one side and towards the front on the other side.

I noticed that. I posted about it in Guiddy's S2000 thread. Oh, well.

not really a cock up more a simplification matter, only 1 wheel to design then multiply by four
