Andi, I haven't the foggiest! I did look into it as I have one of Marlon's bodies which was all but essential to go with some of the other 1938 stuff available. The picture below shows a wheel with the same spoke layout as the 308 front wheel, albeit that the 308 fronts had 72 spokes, not 84 as shown in the picture. View AttachmentThe second picture shows the correct spoke layout for the 308 rears. View AttachmentBoth correct spoke layouts are available, however; The front wheels are complex in their assembly, so many have opted to have the simpler (centre laced) option, which was after all used on these cars later on. References to size are all but non-existent. I can only assume that sizes varied to an extent, dependant upon whether a fast circuit was involved or not. Regardless, I can only supply 18" for these. I will have to check on parts, that is, spoke etches. Peter. Ok, thanks Peter, if you find me some relevant bits i'm happy to buy them. Kind regards Andi

Messages have been sent and I cannot supply wheels unless I have a specification. Please check your message box if you have expressed an interest. If you have been given a choice, I need to know your option.
18" stuff is fast going but only regarding spoke etches. In due course two further frets will be drawn up which will hopefully balance the situation and bring the project to a conclusion.
Peter.
