All good information,
I found that with the spinner tool and a two pound sledge that the leverage of the extended wings always got them tight. I used the safety wire as a visual check to see if they were loosening every time I got into the car the first time any day I drove it, the safety wire needs to be slightly slack so you can see if it has tiightened in the direction of loosening, if is slack the spinners are tight.
Using the lead hammer always left me wondering if it really tight enough especially with the angle you had to swing it and the wear and tear on the hammer head after numerous uses.
One mans opinion after 16 years, 4 roadsters, GT40 and a Daytona, never lost a wheel or not able to get them off when I wanted to and never had one come loose.
