Wheels are nine spoke, two-piece aluminum fitted with inner and outer sealed ball bearings. The bearing balls in the left image of a main wheel center are visible since the test bearing is not a sealed type. The 3" diameter brake drum attaches directly to the inside face of the main wheels as shown in the center tire & wheel in this image. The main gear tires are 9-3/4" diameter and the right tire & wheel in this image shows the 8-3/4" diameter tire for the nose gear mounted on a nine-spoke wheel.
