View of the front driver's wheel and fender.

Picture 1 of 3.

The LRV's tires were fabricated of piano wire with an internal bump stop frame.

While most of the photos I've seen of an LRV on the moon show an orange-brown fender, I've also seen vintage photos of rovers with white fenders. This particular LRV has three white and one orange fender.
