Wheeled tanks are broken.

When they get hit, 50% of the hit area is wheel only.  There's a gigantic gap behind those tires where there is no hull.  You must aim higher on them to cause damage.  If WG would drop the hull a bit behind the wheels, they'd be worlds easier to damage. Aside from that, they are basically the only vehicle in the game that can't be "tracked" and that's also a problem.  Every non wheeled vehicle get's nailed to the spot when they take a damaging shot to the suspension.  These things should be no different.  I know realism is out the window in this game, but at some point we have to say, "Seriously?"  How are we to assume the crew repairs a damaged tire while the vehicle is still moving at 50 kph? So are they actually broken?  Not really, and certainly not as badly as they could be.  Do they need fixing?  Without a doubt.  No other class of vehicles has so drastically changed the meta than these things.
