Wire Wheels 101 - Hot Wires: Part I
|
Several manufacturers, including Wheel Vintiques, offer all three patterns in a variety of finishes, diameters, widths, and spoke counts (this one being a 52-spoke model). Though it is very faithful to the original design, it is pretty easy to spot: The area where the hub flares from its small diameter to the large one has a flat face. That area on an original wheel has a little trough immediately surrounding the smaller part of a hub. That also makes the larger part of the original hub appear more pronounced. View Related Article
