Show off!  Are you using the escort axle or a reliant? |

Yeah thats kinda what we are looking for but would be better if they were fronts. The diameter of those rear ones are too small. Bigger is better |

The slotted one looks good at that price! mind you it's whats on the front of my trike so i would think that.
Just a bit of info for ya, I had the peeling chrome stripped off and the whole wheel smoothed and polished for £45 which I thought was a bit of a bargain. Only prob is that the company that did it is in Thetford.

Whatever we get will more than likely be powder coated.

How about a 15 inch 2CV wheel on the front?
Like this. Ural pie tin hub.

Can you explain that a bit more? Does a Ural hub fit a 2CV rim?
We really don't anything big & heavy. Our trikes are very small & lightweight cos that's the way we like 'em, so I don't really want a huge chunky car wheel up front. Preferably an 18 or 19 inch solid or solid/slotted bike rim like the one shown, which'll match the Moggy rears.
We may be going for a tractor theme but not too agricultural!

I was just about to when you posted.
The Ural hub is spaced out by about 10mm with washers or proper spacers.
The wheel spindle is 20mm dia and if you want hydraulic brakes an 8 inch Mk 1 Escort, Morris Minor, or any other old british front brake, back plate will fit.
The 2CV tyre is pretty narrow with a 125 or 135 fitting.
