Paul,
I've had chrome wheels with stainless spokes on my TF for more than 13 years
and several thousand miles with no broken spokes. You'd be hard-pressed to
tell the difference between the stainless spoke and the chrome rim. I've
also just put a set on my MGA. They are Dayton 452 chrome wheels with 60
spoke stainless steel from Hendrix Wire Wheel (www.hendrixwirewheel.com) I
would whole-heartedly recommend the stainless spokes and Hendrix. (No
financial interest and all the other usual disclaimers.)
