Hi sir bat and Jack

The protrusion of the wheel centre, as shown in the above image, is the same on the inner side of wheel which maintains the clearance between body and wheel. Even with the rear wheels on mine being worn and a wobbly on the axle they dont contact the body of the mower. They are 150mm diameter with a tyre width of 35mm. Ill pull one off and report on the bush set up.

cheers
