Sorry mate, the Abrams wheels are 40mm. So you seem to be looking at aroung 45mm. Get yourself to B&Q or a plumbers merchants. You should be able to find some plastic pipe of that diameter, if not go for a larger diameter pipe take a couple of 5mm slices, and cut a notch out of them to give the correct diameter then jb weld them. Another piece of smaller diameter pipe will make the inside/axle part of the wheel.
Hope this helps

Re: M44/M52 S.P.G 155mm build
Hi Rob Just been looking at your photos and something jumped out at me the gearcase behind the sprocket from what Ive seen looks alot like a sherman one can you take a photo with a rule for scale then I can check .
The build looks good you have alot of work to do like to see something different .
regards pete
