Cyberwheels overpowered

You could not have the economy to counter wheel+tank rush to build another factory. After getting loads of rocket/laser cannot gain any economy advantage over the wheels, then soon you will see the chem buggy.
He has no income either if he doesn't have a harvester. Just remember you two have the same pop cap if he doesn't have a harvester but you have one, he will have one more unit than you so there will be some 2v1 situations, and yes, 2 wheels beat 1 laser/rocket. If both have or don't have harvs, then same number of combatants, 3 missiles can win 2 wheels + 1 scorpion really. If he keeps no harv really he can't pop out a chem buggy. If you feel rush unstoppable, your harvester is the first one to blame, occupying population but can't fight.

You still get Tiberium even if you don't have a harvester. It doesn't make much sense narratively, since where is this Tiberium even coming from when no one is harvesting it? But it is probably needed for a good playability of the game.
