After searching for months for a reasonably priced pair of old steel spoked wheels for this build I won a Fleabay auction for these cast iron wheels.
They are 13" diameter and 2 1/4" wide. They sure look the part but I am concerned that they might crack from the weight. I have searched for info about but did not find much. My build will weigh about 400 -450 lbs. Is there a reason I have not seen any other builds using cast iron wheels?
