Wire wheels - please advise
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Good afternoon to all,
I am restoring a 1993 Double Six Daimler in Italy and I want to put wire wheels on. I searched this forum for wire wheels and found only 5 threads. One mentioned the risks of failure if driven hard around corners or off traffic lights. In my case this will be used as a family, holiday, car: no stress. I was hoping to find advice about wheel hubs, centre caps (large nut or 3 bar nut) and which are the best brands. One post mentions the brand Dayton.
Questions:

Questions:
- Can these wheels use the centre lock hubcap, or must the 4 (5?) studs remain visible?
- Are both hexagonal or hectagonal hubcaps, and 3 bar hubcaps, available? Do any of these hubcaps have the Daimler logo?
- What are the top 2 o3 wire wheels brands?
