Default Modeltech P-47 "maiden"

Is it possible to modify the wheel openings to install a more scale size wheel( ~4.5"), or is the spar in the way. I like the P-47 and am looking for something to put my 1.20 4stroke in. This one looks like it has reasonble outline, but those "Itty Bitty" wheels look rediculous. Besides, I fly off grass.
I don't have the plane with me at the moment so i am not sure on the wheel thing but the 120 should fit okay inverted with an opening in the bottom. I tossed the stock wheels and replaced them with Kavans. They are definitely a "plane saver."
*A small reminder is that I was still slightly tail heavy even with the 1.08 up front.
