My new copy of British Car has a notice for Hendrix Wire Wheels in
Greensboro NC. Sounds like they are carrying on the proper tradition.

Joel Woodard had this to say:
>I have a 1964 MGB with wire wheels. I have balanced and balanced, but at
>60-70mph I still have a slight vibration. On the balancing machine, the
>wheels (all four) have a very slight wobble, so I think they need to be
>trued. I had a machine shop make a special spindle for the balancing
>machine,
>so I am confident that the balancing is as good as I can get it. Does
>anyone have good experience having their wire wheels trued? Where? I live
>in Kansas, so I'll probably have to ship them somewhere. Is it better to
>buy new wheels? The VB catalog mentions that even new wheels should be
>trued before installation. Any advice will be appreciated!
