An excellent post... Getting the rubber off the roadwheels I have might not be too difficult as it has hardened to the consistency of coal and shatters on impact !

I have a few spare narrowed Australian wheels with brittle rubber but then again what I really will need in the fullness of time is a set of genuine british narrow wheels with good or new rubber - then there are the british pattern idlers which are different again. I have a pair of originals fitted but they too are fragile.

Getting more narrowed Australian Pattern wheels (as generous as the offer is) probably wo'nt solve the problem of originality for me.

I'm looking at ways to raise the money, bite the bullet and have a set of authentic English rims re-rubbered and shipped to West Australia.

Cheers
