non-Valk parts locate

I have a 1921 T-bucket streetrod and trailer color schemed after the Valk (now Valk related). I am in the process of building a 1/4 scale streetrod to match everything. The frame and differential and suspension is done. What I am looking for is a set of front wheels before I can make the front axle. I have been trying to find a matched set of spoke or alloy looking (prefer spoke) wheels and tires that are about 2inches by 12 or 14 inches tall. they will be spindle mounted.
THANKS

Man, I wish I had known. Was at an auction recently and bought a group lot of misc. Included was a pair of wheels with about 3/4" spokes & tires like you describe. I let a competing bidder pick & purchase these out of my lot. Said they were old torch cart wheels, you might run that rabbit for a ways. I'll keep a look out, sounds like a interesting project.

If you can score some 8'' or 10'' golf cart wheels & tires, they sell Crager S/S hubcaps that look like the real thing for about $50 pr. Might use golf cart axle & spindles.

I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to
