Turns out my wheels are a mess. I don't know much about any of this but I think I just need to find wire wheels and hub adapters.

Thanks Darren

I checked them all originally when I checked out the axle and bearings. I drove it around 20 miles sin...

I'm new to the model T game so I'm just learning. What I'm learning so far is that this is a very expensive hobby! Ouch, anyway I have a 1926 Coupe with wood spokes. I just realized my spokes are loose. I'm finding different size tenon holes and lengths via the vendors. Is there a way to determine w...
