Re: 60 or 72 spoke wire wheels

Bill,
     The 72 spokes are wider than the 60s, 5.5" as opposed 4.5".
The 60s were fitted to the TR4,4a&5 and the 72s to the 6. You'd be better 
to go for the 72's if you want to use 185 tyres. I have the same problem 
as I've got 60 spokes on my 4A and would like to fit wider tyres, but it 
looks like I'm going to have to get new wheels to go to much more than 
165.
