OK, a few degrees is OK but a full turn out will end up breaking the flexible wire tape inside it.
OTOH I'd love a walnut and sandstone wheel for the V6 but the prices are plain mental! He has a nice new all leather wheel courtesy of Les.

Although there's no technical reason for having a wooden wheel, it's well worth it.
I get what you say, but even having only done 10 miles since the fit, yes, it IS worth it!!!
