I've read many post here where some folks say 'leave the safety wire loose', and just couldn't believe it?. If you feel it's necessary to whack the spinners after a short trip, cut the safety wires off and re-do them, I ran about 5000 miles before I had to buy new tires, safety wire was still tight as well as the spinners, fold the ends in the recess of the spinner fingers if your worried about someone cutting themselves and, spread a 'light light' coat of neverseeze on the mating surface of the spinner otherwise, you will be doing some labor intensive cleaning. I did!!!!.

I use .041 wire.
