Default disc wheels

Hi, I went and saw an old boy a year or so back to buy some carrier wheels off him, he had once restord a T16 that came out of the pounds scrap yard. We got talking about T16 wheels and he told me they produced the solid disc type to prevent sabotage from the enemy, apparently you could disable the vehicle by putting iron rods through the wheels jamming he tracks, he was about 90 years old and seemed to know what he was taliking about.

this could be the reason?.
