Two question, does anyone know the axle dia of Slaters range of 16mm scale wheels per chance.
Whilst the 2 choices available are not perfect for the subject engine, they'll probably have to do with some modifications.
Second, Slaters G3 wheel tyre width, failing the above it may be possible to use G3 wheels unless the tyre width is drastically wrong. Both driver and idler are 4½" wide which gives a tyre width of 6mm in 16mm scale.
For reference, wheels required are disc wheels, drivers of 2'-9" and idlers of 1'-9"
The only other alternative is turn my own, which at more than (depending on exact engine choice) twenty required is not a task taken lightly.
Thanks in advance
