Those wheels are tall and skinny very much like MC wheels. And isn't the front set smaller than the rear?
They go in the correct direction on the other side:


And yes, the front wheels look smaller diameter in the front -- in some of the photos. It is harder to see this in the other photos; the ones from the the front. I think it is a rear wheel drive. We'll see whether the green car in the teaser shots is in fact an updated 1/X or not. It would seem to be either based on the iQ or related to the 1/X, but it could be an all-new design.

Hopefully they are able to produce carbon fiber for less money than they used to -- maybe if they started with chicken feathers? :-)
