There have also been reports on Packard and other mfgs forums that if the wheels are powder coated the very smooth and extra hard finish makes it difficult for the teeth to grab. Bending the teeth is also recommended in that situation but others report in addition to more tension on the teeth, they had to scuff and dull the powder coat where the teeth landed. Usually that fixed the issue although some said even that wasn't enough and they finally resorted to steel instead of the rubber air fittings.
