Answer:
Alternatively, depending on the size of the car, cut paper into strips as wide as you want the tread of the wheel to be. roll the strips up, stopping to apply glue as needed until you reach the size of wheel you need. This is tedious if the wheel needs to be large, but simple and sturdy. It's basically solid, so it will bear a lot of weight and can't really collapse. To attach it to the car, assuming that the bottom of the car is made of paper and reasonably sturdy itself, cut two pieces of wire for axles, then roll a piece of paper around each of the axles (basically making close fitting paper straws around the axles. glue the paper 'straws' to the underbody of the car, slide in the axles,and slide the wheels onto the axles. This is comparatively heavy, but sturdy.

Okay: first off the bat: make two circles at the wheel size you then make two more circles one inch larger from the centers of the other two . Then cut the larger circles out but leave the small one intact than mark a strip of paper equal to (2*pi*r) -r = the size of your wheel ( diameter /2) than add one inch to it. add one inch to both side of the width of the strip - this forms the rim of the wheel cut the rim (the strip you made) out glue the inch extra end together with other end going in one inch deep. this should form your wheel rim than use scissors make some cuts in the circles you cut out going from the larger circle stopping at the smaller circle going no farther than that. now glue the cut ends and put them in the rim and allow it to dry overnight. Now with another sheet or paper cut your paper into strips then slightly fold the two side end of the strips and gluing one side fold. starting from the inside center of the half completed wheel going toward the inside rim than put a little glue on the paper stip that touches the wall and glue it to the wall go a little way along the inside rim wall than go back toward the center and glue it there, repeat this process until you come back to were you started expect you glue the wall as well-( what this does is form spokes for your wheel to keep it from collose) then glue the other wheel's circle on and allow it to dry overnight Repeat this process three more time and done with making the wheels. build your car body; add something to hold the wheel wire on the car and poke your hanger wire through it at the center, bend the two end so the wheels don't come off. and attach it to the car and your done.
