I've asked this of a few of you already, but wonder what you collectively think about replacing 60 spoke wheels with 72's. I noted modest vibration and shake when driving my (new old) car home this

I would have to disagree with anyone who claims that the number of spokes has anything to do with "shaking". If your car is shaking, it's because the wheels and/or tires are out of round and balance

If the 60's are not adequate for the loads why would the 48's be used in stock applications. I used 48's on my 100-6 for years without any wobble and they were old as the hills. I have since upgraded

Hi Don: In your reply, what part of the hub should be rounded on both edges - not sharp ? DM / Bj8 If the 60's are not adequate for the loads why would the 48's be used in stock applications. I used

I think (not 100% sure) 60-spoke painted wheels were stock on BJ8s (chrome was an option). When I bought my BJ8, it had them, and I kept breaking spokes (lots of nice curvy roads around here). Also,

The tops of the hub splines should be flat, not rounded. From the side, the profile of the spline is an isosceles trapezoid. The hubs are (probably) cut round on a lathe, then the splines are cut per

I recently put new Dayton 60 spoke wheels on my 61 BN7 and I have no problems with vibration or shake at those speeds. I think, from reading this list for many years that most shake can be corrected

20+ years ago I put a set of the infamous "india" 60 chromes on my Hortense. Didn't take too long (first L.D. and with SCARED wife-to-be<G>) for spokes to start letting go. The return trip from Encou

If you have a few hundred extra dollars in your pocket then by all means go with the 72s. However, the 60s are adequate for most even spirited driving. Realize that even 72s will have to be trued by

Coast to coast, I believe Hendrix is the best for anything Healey. When I went to Vermont (Conclave 2007), a deflating tire set up a shimmy that started my spokes a' snapping. Allen shipped me two ne

I found I had a very significant shake on my BJ-8 when driving fast, about 75 or 80 MPH. It felt like the rear end was bouncing up and down - in a dramatic fashion giving me a pretty good scare. I ty

If you guys really want to lose the shake, get a set of spline drive minilites and be done with it. Mine are bolt-on, but the effect is the same: http://www.ewilkins.com/wilko/minilite.htm __________
