If a wheel becomes loose, it may be able to break the safety wire without a problem. There is a lot of back and forth force on a loose wheel. Unless the safety wire is a large enough gauge, it could break. Is there a chance that the wheel is not correct? I assume that the wheel is a Trigo. If so, they are not all perfect, to say the least. After all, a correctly installed wheel and spinner shouldn't come loose. Just my .02!
