My 55 1st series 3100 has two different types of rims. The front rims have bosses on the outside of the rims for the hubcap to snap over and use a larger hubcap. The rear rims have rivited tabs inside the rim to hold the hubcaps and use the smaller diameter hubcaps. Can someone shed some light on this? All rims are 6 bolt pattern.

the ones with the clips are original style, the others are 60's or later - common change when needing to replace a rim
