Chipmunk main wheels

Evening all,

Would someone be able to tell me the dimensions of said wheels please? Also the diameter and length of the ‘ole in the middle 🙂

Thanks,
Jon

As David says, it’s a six inch wheel, which is the diameter of the well. The rim is about seven inches, and the bearing aperture (‘ole in the middle 😀 ) is about 2½ inches. Bit hard to gauge the depth of this hole, as you would need the wheel to be off the aircraft. Hope this helps.
