Well I have a set of chrome wires, but I wouldn't sell them to you. I
wouldn't use them, so why would I sell to a list member?? You can have them
for the shipping charges, but they need truing and rechroming - you probably
don't want them. I got new chrome wires from Dayton. They have the stainless
steel spokes. They are available in 4 1/2 inch widths (stock is 4").
You can get Dunlops from Moss or any of the Moss resellers. Only thing is
they are only available in 4" width. I have heard bad things about Dunlops,
but according to Dick Burger (The British Parts Connection www.bpc.com), a
Moss reseller, they are better now than they used to be. For the same price,
or close enough for government work (or is that carpenters measurements??) I
would go for the 4 1/2" inch Daytons. Knock off style Mini-Lites or
Panasports are some where between unobtainium and non-existent, except in 6"
widths.
