Right rear wheel, smaller diameter of the other three, it is clear that it can not be the wear caused it as much smaller! My question is: can be a production error? Thank You

Sometimes unusual wheels were fitted, it can be just one wheel or a number of wheels. We call them "oops" and there are lots of examples, including photos on this forum. Your model is a tough one to find and with the small wheel, it is an interesting model too.
