When I was about to put my 100 back on the road in 2002 I weighed the optio=
ns and decided to install Panasport (Minilite style) wheels instead of goin=
g back to wires. I was not looking forward to dealing with the fragility of=
the 48 spoke wheels and the 60 spokes won't fit in the front (BN4 running =
gear). They cost a little more initially, but the have paid for themselves =
in performance and lack of preventive maintenance.
One thing to remember, any wider wheel/tire combination may negate the abil=
ity to carry a spare.

Subject: [Healeys] MINILITE WHEELS ?
Hello All,
I have a 1966 BJ8.
I=92m thinking of getting a new set of the MINILITE STYLE KNOCKOFF wheels =
and a set of
the MICHELIN XAS 165X15 for next driving season.
I was wondering if any list members have any experience with these solid (n=
on wire) wheels and your opinion
on the quality and safety vs. the traditional wired set.
I was looking at the Minilite wheels on Moss @ $399.99 ea !
Jim
