Kean Thompson Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Wanted: Rudge Whitworth Wire wheels. I am putting together a few sets of fine splined wire wheels for 1912 era Veteran cars. They are mainly Rudge 80 and Rudge 90 and range in size from 820 X 120, 880 X 120 and 895 X 135. If you think you have something that might suit, pleas e-mail me. I have measurement tables to identify. I am happy to buy decent centers if the rims are shot as I have a good local source to make rims and respoke them. I will also buy frontand rear splined hubs to suit. Below is a photo indicative of what I am looking for, Kean Thompson. speedster1930@hotmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jolly_John Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Kean, here's a link to an original Rudge Whitworth 120 wrench I have available.

Kean Thompson Posted March 22, 2023 Author Share Posted March 22, 2023 Yes I did see the topic. I am unclear if this fits any of my sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolly_John Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 Kean, I'm not well informed about the Rudge Whitworth sizing system. I would think you could measure the nut size across the flats on the wheels/axles you're working with, and get a good indication if my 120 wrench is applicable. The across-the-flats measurement on my wrench is approximately 3-3/16", which is approximately 80 mm, or a hair more. Perhaps someone else with more Rudge Whitworth wheels will chime in.
