Re: J.III Chassis - Wheels.
------------------------

Will you please order a further set of five 18" wheels suitable for 6-18 tyres, in accordance with our print G.54976.

The setting of the spokes to allow for balance weights as shewn on G.55416 should be incorporated in these wheels. Copy of this print was sent to Messrs Dunlops under cover of our memo BY/Mtn8/N.17.2.32.

These wheels are required for the first J.III chassis which is now being built in the Experimental Department.
