Carrier wheel re rubbering got a group deal !

[Philliphastings]

Thanks for the offers of assistance Richard and Martyn. You have certainly got me thinking very seriously about it.

There is virtually no chance of obtaining useable roadwheels of the correct type over here so to have them re-rubbered and shipped out from the UK is a viable and financially justifiable option it seems.

Hmmm

You could also look in this direction.I can keep an eye open.

[Philliphastings]

Thanks also Lynn. Perhaps you could carry a set over as hand luggage...


Cheers

I've been trying to produce dehydrated water for about 30 years. When I get that one sorted, I'll move on to freeze dried carrier wheels.

Hey Phill, If you need to get your english wheels rerubbered over there, just ring a forklift tyre fitting company and they will arrange for you. It would have to be cheaper than getting them done in england.

Colin!

Phillip,
A bit off topic for me as a weasel man but I do know that Bigtyre in Toowoomba QLD;
http://www.bigtyre.com.au/index2.html
has a mold for Bren Gun Carrier wheels. I think it may be for Australian wheels though???? Could that tyre mold be altered for English carrier wheels?. The rerubbered tyres do look very impressive.
Cheers

Philip has not got any English wheels. He wants some. His carrier has Aust wheels which have been turned down.
Phillip, maybe a packer(s) can be fabricated to go in the mould?

Hi Guys, the mould in question at toowoomba is the one that they made to do my first lot of carrier wheels,I had 10 done in the first batch, and I have had quite a few sets done since then, they do an excellent job, the mould is for australian wheels, if you can get enough starters they will make a mould for the British type wheels, by the way the wheels that I removed from the Marmon Herrington carrier conversion that I found a few years ago,was fitted with narrow Aust wheels, and I still have them,
