Hi before I reinvent the wheel did anyone find a place in Ontario/Canada to recondition road wheels for UC's?
I have found someone in Timmins that may be able to do the work. They think it is a cool project and are willing to pursue this. They need more info re: the wheel/rubber dimensions, than I was able to give today. They dont think it should be that expensive either. So before I send them the info or a wheel did anyone else find a source and price for this job? Also is anyone else interested in getting some wheels done? I can probly get a better price in volume ie 10+ I will post more in a couple of days as I learn more!

Hi Ralph
I think the real secret into getting some of these done would be to find someone that has an NOS wheel kicking about. I know they're out there somewhere as I have seen a few over the years and it would be the correct way to have new ones moulded, that is having an original spec wheel for the tire shop to use as a template.

The problem I foresee with re-rubbering the wheels is that there is wear on the metal part of the wheel as well. I know that we would send ou M113 road wheels in for re-build, but those had a replaceable wear plate riveted on the sides.

Rob, where oh where is the "wear" on the roadwheels?
I am assuming it would be on the outer surfaces, ie. the width would be diminished?
