The standard wheel on a Kirkham 289 is a standard Trigo Halibrand-like wheel. The Kirkham's charge $2,000 extra for wire wheels. I don't know about today, as I write, but Kirkham has previously supplied Dayton's as their optional wheels on 289 slabsides.
I've never been a big fan personally. I'd probably look for some kidney beans, because they're high in fiber, high in protein, high in potassium and high in iron (among other vitamins and minerals).
