Humor me.
But I'm thinking of making a set of Ply wheels for the Donor car.
2 sheets of ply fixed together, then 4 rough circles cut from it.
I need the alloy wheels off the car, and it's stored outside.
It does need to be moved now and then, otherwise I would put it on bricks.
Any other bright idea's as it weights around 500KG so above the simple pallet on casters approach.
I have some flame cust steel discs "wheels" on my trailer - what might be better and cheaper could be a trip to the scrappy and buy 4 steel
wheels and pay by the kg?
hth
As above, I think if they get wet you're in danger of having one collapse when you next lean against it. Buy some scrap ones.
With the above, most scrappy will be £10 a wheel with tyre
13" with 4" PCD is the problem.
Did think 4 spacesavers and drill mounting holes out.
Someone abandoned a Sainsbury's type trolley near our house.
It only took a few cuts with Mr Angrygrinder and a couple of pieces of 20mm SST welded on to raise the bottom tray to horizontal.
Certainly man enough for the F27 (650kg) and the beauty of it is the wheels swivel.
HTH. Cheers, Pewe10

Shame you're not closer, I've a bunch of Morris Minor wheels that are 4" PCD. But they're at my parents in Kent....
Or get some 100mm from scrappy and file the holes out slightly?
tbh I think your wooden wheels will work just fine, two 12mm sheets glued together would be more than up to it
Having just built a garage extension from ply I would have thought that rough scrappy wheels would be cheaper.
I see no problem, it's been done before https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4qB6n1cm04
