Re: Phantom III Chassis - Road Wheels.
-----------------
Kindly note it has been decided to carry on with the present 4.00 x 18" wheels for another 100 chassis, this will mean the whole of 'C' series will be fitted with the present type wheels.

The experimental Dept. hope to have their tests with the new type wheel completed in three to four weeks time, and we will let you have further instructions in regard to 'D' series wheels as soon as possible.
