Tiger I late version
the same wheels were used on
German heavy tank Tiger Ausf.B (Sd.Kfz.182) Tiger II
(King Tiger)

Newer Tiger wheels were developed in 1943 and introduced from February 1944. The same diameter, they had steel tires clamped between two steel hubs. Two rings of rubber, one on each side between the hub and the tyre served to provide cushioning.
These were much more durable and could support a greater weight, to the point that the outermost row were no longer needed. Tiger Is fitted with these wheels only had 16 per side, two per suspension arm.
Another advantage of the new wheels was that it was now no longer necessary to remove any when fitting the narrower transport tracks.
