How to change child's rotation whithout affecting it's scale?

Questions & Answers

I have a cube named “carBody” of scale (0.83,0.14,1.51). It has an empty gameobject of scale(1,1,1,) named “tire”. And a sphere named “front tire” as a child of “tire”.

Now the problem is, when i change the rotation of “front tire”, it also changes it’s scale automatically as it is a chlid gameobject,

i’m using this code to rotate:
tire1.transform.eulerAngles = new Vector3 (10, 10, 10);

but it’s also changing the scale.
How can i stop it from changing it’s scale?

Create fake parent which scale is normal (1,1,1). carBody should go under it and you should scale the fake parent, leaving actual carBody alone.
