[TR] [NET] Parts, parts....

[DAVE HOGYE]

Gene,
I have a couple or a few dozen TR3 wheels in my possession.  They were all bent or out of round or not true.  All of them, to different degrees of severity.  I think some can be straightened or trued.  Most have become hose hangers around my ranch.  They made really nice hose hangers, patina and all.  I use old wire wheels too.  They are not worth rebuilding or repairing.  
Cheers,
Dave H.

Problem is that a couple of them are slightly out of round and I’m sure is the cause of the wobble I get at times. I can’t seem to locate new ones and how do I know if the used ones are any better then what I already have?
