Yes, 1936 was the last year for the optional wooden-spoked artillery wheels for senior cars. In good condition they are certainly safe to drive at speeds and under conditions these cars were designed for. Even earlier cars on tour with wood spoke wheels is a very common occurrence - they are quite robust.

There were pressed steel-spoked artillery wheels available in the junior series for a couple of years after 1936 (pix attached).
