The TL14702's are British wheels I think, the TL 94's are normal carrier road wheels, the four holed wheels I think are maultier. The return rollers look to be later ones perhaps mk2 ? And on. The earlier mk1 Canadian return rollers had more rubber and less metal if that makes sense.

Someone will be along shortly to give the exact denominations I am sure

Default Can somebody indentify the wheels?

It appears you have a mix of Brit and Canuck 19 inch track adjuster, as well as 20 inch standard bogie wheels. Look on the rubber portion sidewall for the size marking.

Default wheels

The wheels with the four round holes are carrier wheels.
I believe they were produced late in the war by British car manufacture
Worsley or Thorncroft.
I have also seen them that where produced by Sun Printers, (Odhams),Watford.
Sun Printers made parts for carriers, there print factory workshops given over to the war effort.
I have a war time picture of a British carrier with these wheels I will try to post.
Many years ago I found a wreck of a carrier in a Rugby quarry that had these wheels.

Barry the British carrier wheels with circular holes have six holes not four, I have seen originals and there are a number of wartime photos.

i dont think the levers are an original item, perhaps an after war modification like the bits stuck on the front of the lower hull plate
