You might also want to check your wheel spokes.
Terrific observation and recommendation, Tom!!
Years back while tooling along in the 34 after a violet pothole I had a violent shimmy, thought a tire was flat. Got out and looked, tire was OK and continued along a few hundred more yards. Got out to look again and noticed the hubcap was no longer in the center of wheel! Once the 2nd or 3rd spoke snapped (at the hub), I presumed the rest began to fail in rapid succession as there were no longer enough to distribute the load over. I had completely forgotten about this incident, though I still have the wheel, or should I say the remains of the wheel.
