In Section 11. 5 we created an exploded wheel assembly. In this section we will create a new
configuration with a green tire. The “green” configuration of the skateboard also has a black
wheel.

If necessary, expand the Tire to show the design tree.
Right-click the Tire and select Appearances and Tire or Part.
Click Remove Appearance.
If the Color options do not show, click the arrows to open. See Figure 11. 6.
