Post says British wire wheels, I was assuming we were getting a quality hammer. It will work, but I could have got a made in China one locally. Didn’t notice the made in china engraving in the photos posted, and package shipped from New Jersey. So, yea it will work to tighten the knockoffs on my wire wheels. And other than the fact that some wire wheels are British made, the item title is fairly misleading. For the average guy just trying to put my rims on, I could have just bought a MADE IN CHINA version locally. Product took a long time to deliver, but was one day early.

Used on 1963 Corvette with the real “knock off style” wheels. I was skeptical because of the price point, but it did not damage the chrome spinner. Had to finally replace the original that the car came with. If you don’t know, this is meant to “bend” and get deformed. Eventually when I have to buy a new one, will probably end up here again. Here is the original hammer that I had to replace. New hammer tackled all four wheels and has a few tire changes to go I’m sure.

The Lead Hammer came quicker than I expected. As you can see my old one needed to be replaced. I’ve only used it a few times but it’s felt solid and balanced. The handle feels better than others I’ve used in the past. I have Dayton wire wheels on my Impala so I always make sure to keep it handy in the trunk in case I need to tighten and remove my wheels on the road. Overall great product!

Uh, not sure what to say here other than I can wack things and not damage them with this lead hammer. As intended, it is the softest material you can hit something with and not muck it up. It works for other things than just spinner wheels...just sayin'.

It works. The Hammerhead is almost too soft, and get's pretty mashed up.
