I received an update from Dayton as follows: they can do a 16" wire wheel in a "well lace" design, 72 spoke, tube type, knock-off wheel. In my eye, the "well lace" looks similar to the Borrani wheel typically used on Ferraris of the era: the spokes are atttached to the wheel at a point set in quite a bit from the outside of the rim. so there is a fair amount of chrome rim showing.

1. Should I anticipate any problems using a modern 205-65 16 tubeless tire with a tube? I thought I had been told at one point that installers won't use a tube with a tubeless tire.

2. Although beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I would appreciate any comments on this type of wheel.

with appreciation,

David
