Hi Hozz, I know what you need in the way of shims and spreader, however I don't know of a source for them. If your spokes are loose enough to require the shims I would do some serious thinking of having them respoked. Once your spokes are that loose it is a clue that new ones are needed. A temporary fix for a single tour or trip you can wet them down with a garden hose. {We did this three times a day on the Pre-29 National tour in Moab, UT] If you decide to have them respoked I will get you in contact with the best wheel man around.
