Hi all,
        Jim Schardt of Dayton Wire Wheels has raced Yenko Stingers for years.  
I 
would call him and talk with him and ask his advice.  He is a racer and I 
don't think he would steer you wrong.

I'd consider very carefully what I was trying to achieve with my vintage
racer before running on wires.
