^^ What he said about vibration plays a big role. I suppose it's also true that the engineering advantage of 5 spoke over 6 spoke is minuscule.

I looked around at wheels a few years back, and noticed a fair number of American cars with even numbers of spokes, but not nearly as many imports like that.
