My hypothesis : Technically it should work, but it'll be a major tweaking task to make it useful...

That wont work, you would need to add a collider to each wheel and hope that the collision system will be able to carry the car around, which most likely will be very buggy and wont work at all.

I would advice you to take the classic approach and just move the actual car and rotate the wheels using animations.
