Haven't any of you guys heard of tubeless wire wheels?
A couple of months ago, I was considering going wire (as I am wont to do every
few months) and the only way I would do this would be with the tubeless ones.
Dave uses them all the time on his restorations and concours cars-they're great!
Just my two cents worth,
