- When you say " I knew the wire wheels were not the best" what did you mean? Are they used and abused and possibly untrue, or did you mean that they were not the best choice of "new wheels". "They we

- The old Dunlop wire wheels were out of round and "un"-true. The guys at Hendrix wire wheel in Greensboro NC shaved the new tires to round, and did the best they could to "true" the wheels, but they

- Don't rule out bad u-joints on the propshaft. I found this to be the case with my '69 TR6 a short while ago. With new, balanced tires, front end rebuild, pro alignment, etc. the shaking at 55-60 mph
