Harley do some different 19inch wheels, but I'd be wary of using a bike wheel - they have different loads (mostly perpendicular to the wheel, not lateral like in a 3 or 4 wheeler). Example (not one I'd consider, but anyway!  ) below...

Ace wheel discs are still available, like the Rosengart but both faces of the wheel. http://www.fiennes.co.uk/Parts/Catalogue/O/OB Tim

Just finished talking to Will fiennes. He would be very interested in getting the parts for a morgan 3 wheeler. He needs to see a car up close to take measurements. Fitting if parts are avaible in the order of 30minutes. Cost not cheap, depending on volume, in the order of £700 for both wheels. He's based in west oxfordshire.

Presumably these are wheel disks that mount to the current wheel? Interesting. I'm not far from him and its a nice drive down from Burford (past Cotswold Wildlife Park)... maybe I could drive out there one evening....

To get the look right each disc is made up of 4 pieces which bolt together and then there are 7 cross pieces which lock it all together. Yes, they encase the current wheel.
That would be very helpful PaulV. John.

the disc solution is really a good one, you can paint it , polish , sand it and remove it if you want, the cost for made the disc is fairly cheap if 15 peoples want it i can do it easily (in fact my subcontractor)

Where are you? Can you give an indication of price? hi for do this you have two way to do it , one is cut the ring and press it depend on the thickness you will need between 100 to 300 ton hydraulic press, the second way is use a square sheet and cut after it's more accurate but also the price is not the same more time consuming and human manipulation. the cost is based on the quantity, but i hav 15 peoples want that made 60 disc (2 by wheel) in my eyes that will never be more than 100 US$ (surely lower), after that have an other cost witch i can't fix it now is the treatment will be asked for: Paint, polish , sanded , chrome and so on Can be metal or alloy , but the best it's Alloy because no rust and more easy to maintain i am in Singapore, my subcontractor (and a friend) made part for Roll & Royce plane so i have no doubts about the quality Voila voila
