What happens then when guns such as the 18Ib'er and 4.5in howitzer which often had the same size wheel and tyre (I am assuming this from looking at photos) after being converted over from horse drawn carriage type wheels?
I know some of the photos show a detachable rim with the centre being left attached to the hub on some guns and limbers as well but the wheel and tyre size look the same size as the LP3's 18in directional tread.
Below are 4 photos from the AWM showing 18lb and 4.5in guns with the demountable rims. Are these 18in or 20in wheels?
