2CV wheels and tires seem to be a good idea. thin, small, and lightweight.

Any idea what kind of front spindle/upright they could be attached to?
May I suggest Citroen 2CV?


Plan taper? Been done:


I know. I know. Price and availability. Blackjack use 2CV for their Avion, for the Zero they use a VW Type I transaxle between Golf/Rabbit half-shafts and spindles. Here with a Motoguzzi V twin.


A 50s VW Beetle had 4" rims and Centerlines are available at 3"
