If TR Shop are selling Motor Wheel Services manufacture chrome spoked wheels these will probably be them. http://shop.mwsint.com/product_details.asp?id=523 XW457C is the spec. The wheels I think are made in India by Wheels India. https://www.wheelsindia.com/wire-wheel.html Alternative makers I know of are Dayton Wire Wheels in USA https://daytonwirewheels.com/ also P J Halliwell who are in UK and make them here. http://pjhallewellengineering.co.uk/manufacturing.php Edited October 3, 2022 by BlueTR3A-5EKT Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RogerH Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 Hi Folks, if you intend to use Phil The Wheel (PJHalliwell) give him a call first.I was there 11 years ago and he was thinking of calling it a day then. BUT - he may have new blood helping. He is defo a quality guy. Roger If using the Indian wheels make sure they are always kept spotless and well waxed. Do not go near the seaside.

Andy Moltu Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 AFIK the chrome wires the Trshop sell have stainless spokes. I would suggest you opt for the tubeless ones. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Andy Moltu Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 Their web site suggests they still 4” painted ones for the 2/3 that don’t seem to be tubeless. All the rest are tubeless. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
