Possible pre-war Hawker wheels?

Can anyone positively identify these wheels for me? I am fairly certain they are of the Nimrod / Fury era, but can’t find a reference to the drawing number on the web.

Serial no AK 20459 2
DRG AH 8049
Issue 4 80

35″ dia, Parker Aero written on the tyres

They were amongst/alongside other random (non-aircraft) bits and pieces so I would imagine that they are still for sale.  No price tag on them and I’m not in a position to return to ask about the price unfortunately.
Here’s their website so you could drop them an email of enquiry – Home | Glasgow Architectural Salvage

Are they still for sale? If so do you know how much?

Coincidentally I just came across these wheels, the same ones, in Glasgow Architectural Salvage (GAS) on Clydebank in Glasgow.

I have a pair of Walrus undercarriage legs to match – all we need now is fuselage, wings, tail and a few other assorted bits…..:D
