wire spoke wrench

Country flag

I purchased new wire wheels this fall so I purchased a spoke wrench form British Victoria. The problem is that it won't fit with out serious damage to the paint. Does any one know if the Moss version is any better? Any other brands I should look into?

Do you have reason to believe that the spokes need adjusting. Usually they don't for quite a few years. I think that any wrench will damage the paint if you put on enough pressure to turn a spoke nipple. Just touch up or repaint.
