100-Spoke Straight Lace Bold, Clean & Timeless
The straight lace spoke pattern is the most celebrated design in wire wheel culture and for good reason. Each of the 100 precision-tensioned spokes runs in clean, direct, parallel lines from hub to rim, creating a bold, symmetrical spoke arrangement that radiates strength, elegance, and authenticity. Unlike cross-lace patterns, the straight lace design delivers a cleaner, more modern aesthetic while preserving the classic wire wheel character that enthusiasts have cherished for generations.
At 17 inches, 100 straight lace chrome spokes create a wheel face that is dense with detail, rich with light reflection, and impossible to ignore. Whether you’re parked at a car show or rolling down the boulevard these spokes tell a story of uncompromising style.

Real-World Buyer Solutions
The 17-inch barrel configuration naturally provides much more internal clearance than classic 13 or 14-inch sizes, making them excellent for modern luxury sedans or restomod builds utilizing updated disc brake assemblies. However, because wire wheel offsets and hub adapter backspacing differ heavily from standard alloy wheels, we always recommend verifying your specific caliper depth. Call or text our fitment line directly at (323) 425-9357 to check your vehicle’s fitment before your order ships.
Straight-lace wire wheels feature spokes that travel in a clean, vertical path directly out from the center hub to the outer lip barrel, creating a dense, high-shine radial look that makes the wheel look larger and brighter. Cross-lace wheels feature spokes that cross over one another diagonally, which adds a deep-dish profile and classic lowrider twist. Both options from LA Wire offer exceptional strength, so it down to your preferred style.
Because a 100-spoke wheel has an intricate surface area, regular maintenance is key. Wash your wheels using clean water, a mild pH-balanced automotive soap, and a soft-bristled wire spoke brush to gently sweep away brake dust. Never spray these wheels with aggressive acid-based cleaners, as they can permanently etch the metal plating. To prevent hard water spots from forming deep inside the hub valleys, wipe the spokes completely dry with a clean microfiber towel after washing.
