Danny P Posted November 3, 2020 Author Share Posted November 3, 2020 (edited) Can anybody tell me about the thickness of the rubber wheels. They are approximately 30 mm thickness. How thick were new ones. I would like to indicate the percentage of use! Thanks, Danny Edited November 3, 2020 by Danny P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddy8men Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 they don't really wear down much. they tend to get ripped apart by the track horns first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Herbert Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 As Rick says tracked vehicle tires get shredded rather than worn down but these are idler wheels which had thinner rubber than the road wheels. Also 70 year old rubber will have become very hard and will eventually separate from the wheel so don't expect too much from it. However if you have a mid production T16 and need some curly spoked wheels these seem very clean and non rusty ones. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny P Posted November 16, 2020 Author Share Posted November 16, 2020 I am not familiar with armoured and tracked vehicles. I do have a price in mind but what would be a fair price for the set of two? Thanks, Danny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
