Finally made the time to repaint the wheels for my towed mortar and got the new rubber mounted last night on my backyard deck. While still not a British wartime pattern, I'm much happier with them than I was with the aircraft balloon tyres I had. And I like them much more than a NDT U.S. pattern. Being a 10 ply, I probably won't ever notice if they are low on air pressure since the mortar is only around 5-cwt.
Now I just need to finish painting and assembling the rest of the parts.
