Default wheel rims..


Now the axles are ready the wheels are the next thing to do.
This took me about 1 1/2 hour to take one wheel apart the bolts I have to heat up, and then with a powertool turned them lose, very hard worke.
after the bolts where lose it took some force to get the tire to let go of the rim half. the front tires where war time tires of the run flat type. the rear tires where post war. in the front tires there where thike rubber wheels. and they where marked 1940 and W^D , I think they belong together with the run flat tires. So now I can start sandblasting the rims and paint them.
And finely the new tires could be put on the rims, this looks very nice now.
so time for a
cheers jaap
