Wheels
The wheels look military but I don't think they are Blitz. They have 6 studs like a C8AX but they have sixteen studs holding the rim halves together, the C8AX had twelve.
Correct me if I'm wrong, it's happened before. Cheers Rod

to me they look like 18 inch wheels that are fitted to a lot of trailers, the one at Corowa on the semi had those rims

Trailer wheels
Max is correct , these wheels and axles where fitted to trailers made in the early fifties and fitted with 7.50 x18 tyres.
The hub itself is the same / similar to that used on the Ford Blitz semi trailer axle and run 10.50x18 tyres. Regards Jim s.

blitz trailers
Looking through old threads about Blitz trailers. I'm looking for pics of one described to me over the phone today.
Described as being ex council from the 1940s-1950s but possibly ex army. Blitz rims/tyres (size unknown), heavy duty, trailer around 6x4 size or a touch bigger, tipping, and looking like a roman chariot. Ring any bells to anyone? Does anyone have photos of the trailers built post war described by Jim earlier in this thread? ryan
