Gergo, I still have my notes from a technical session given by a Dayton wire
wheel representative at Conclave 1986. The notes say that 0,030 inch is the
best runout achievable on a new wheel. That is 0,762 mm, so you're pretty
close.

Subject: [Healeys] Wire wheel truing
Hi,
I have dismantled my wheels.
I have made an attempt rebuilding one. It was not that hard as I thouht.
Although I have two questions: first of all, what can be called "true"
shape? After an hour playing, I have resulted around 0,8mm off-shape. Is it
enough, or shall I go thurder? It is difficult to use a dial gauge as he rim
itself is not 100% round.
I have tried to span each spoke the same amount, though not sure of this
"amount". I have used an aprox 10-12cms spanner with a medium load. Each
spoke is ringing alike.
What do You think, is it ok?
Gergo
