@ausfranko -  Where are you located and what is the cost for a pair?

I've been making reproduction Whitewalls now for a few months 3D printed and also custom made.
They have lugs on the back that fit into the original mounting holes

Those are cool! Never even thought about doing something like that. Interested in price as well. It'd be fun to have a custom ring on my new crimson.

Edit to add... just saw the last message about being in Australia. Used to ship some tobacco pipe stuff back and forth to a friend there. Shipping is not pocket friendly!

I can help with using CAD software to make a 3D printer file for these, I would need pretty precise measurements of the diameters and also position and size of the lugs to attach. Would be easy if I have hands on those wheels but I am currently using a performer that have different style wheels.

If someone needs 8" wheels to make the design I currently have some older style 8" and the new style 8" wheels that aren't currently being used on a kettle.  I would be happy to send them out as long as arrangements were made for me to buy some white walls and have the wheels returned.  Just let me know.
