I've just come back from a great drive out to Lifes, changing from heavy fog to blue skies, great with the roof down all the way. My trad. slight rear wheel wobble, turns out to be a paint high spot on the inside of the rear wire wheel hub which had left a carry/witness mark on the back section of the spline. It may well be the service Matty did this year may have been the first time the wheels were off and if that was the case the high spot and carry marks may not have aligned when he put wheel back on leading to this wobble. There was clear evidence that the spinner had been eroding the paint on the outside of the wheel hub.

So cleaned everything down, got rid of the high spot, re-greased and put the wheel back on but slightly tightened the spinner a little bit more (for now to see how it goes) than usual. Seems to have done the trick for now, but will keep it under review, We are not sure whether the wheels have been re painted at some point hence the high spot/drip
