 I believe the question is "will a TR6 with wire wheels sell for a higher p=
rice than one with steel wheels.=C2=A0 I don't know what the market is but =
opinions vary on the desirability of wires on a TR6.=C2=A0 Personally, I do=

rn for the anachronistic look of wire wheels.=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 I love the =
look of wires on the TR3 and TR4, however.
But this is just my opinion.=C2=A0 I'm sure there are others who like the l=
ook of wire wheels on the TR6.=C2=A0 That is their opinion and equally vali=
d.=C2=A0 It's all about what you like.

So the answer to the question is what is the market trend?
I don't know.
