[Healeys] Wire wheels manufacturers

[Rich C]

Tadek, et al,

I have only ever bought and used the MWS painted wheels who use the original 
Dunlop design. The quality of the India manufactured wheels has been very 
high for over 20 years and of all the sets we've bought and installed on my 
own and customers project cars, there have never been any problems, and some 
of these have been driven extensively. Certainly as Josef stated, there is a 
difference in the look of the MWS vs. the Daytons, both in shape and as far 
as I've seen, colour of the paint. The Daytons are definetly a darker silver 
gray than they should be, where the MWS are spot on.
Certainly your choice, but I would definetly recommend the painted 48 spoke 
MWS wheels with nothing bigger than the 165x15 or equivalent tires. If you 
care to go all the way back to originality, these wheels fitted with new but 
original design Dunlop Roadspeed 5.90x15 tires (as originally fitted to your 
car) will give the car it's original look with full and even wheel arches, 
ride height and driving characteristics, admittedly quite different from a 
radial tire, but no stress on the wheels or the car, and great fun to drive. 
These were the best and highest performance tire of their day.

Now come the comments....
