Dan, as far as I know the French did not use the split "combat"
wheels for their WOF fabrications and for the Hotchkiss M201
they used the one-piece MA-type wheel...
There are quite a few used split wheels in France but finding
one that runs true is quite a rarity... I had to resort to
washers to take out the wobble off my MBT wheels...
Antoine...
PS: If one of the list fellows knows of a shop in France who can
straighten out and re-true combat wheels, let me know... I have
3 spares that are for now un-mountable...
