Austin big 7 wheel size - Herbert - 22-01-2020

Would anyone know the wheel size for an Austin Big 7?

According to Parts list 1598 on the Archive site, 16"

and according to Handbook 1523, the tyre size is 4.75 x 16

Many thanks for your reply. Ive got a 1934 7  for which I bought 2 wheels which
I thought would fit, but they don't, I thought the must be Big 7, but obviously not.
Best regards, H.

Herbert,
1934 Seven wheels have spokes, Big 7 are pressed steel!

If you've bought 3-stud wire wheels, they may be Morris Minor.
