studebrooklyn Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Hello -I have a '25 Stude Standard Six.The wheels have the wooden spokes.When the car gets up to 25 mph it shimmies and shakes like crazy.Some of this may be in the front end which i am addressing, but I suspect that the majority of the problem is in the wheels themselves.The axles are fine.Some of the spokes are loose, and the metal rims seem to be warped/out of true.I've tightened the spokes as best I can but some of the holes are stripped.I haven't soaked them yet and will, but I feel they need more serious attention than that.Can anyone recommend a wheelright or a wheel rebuilder/specialist?Many Thanks!
