For helping keep this great

on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Aug 2009 Posts: 163 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2009 Posts: 163 | I noticed a difference between my rims today as I was cleaning them to paint them before mounting tires so I can drive.
I thought the wheels were all matching stock wheels with Hubcap clips but I noticed one wheel only has 3 clips rather than 6 like the others. Not a problem if the holes for the rivets were drilled in the rim already but only every other space has a clip for the hubcap.
Also on one wheel there is 8 slots and 8 spokes. All 4 of the other wheels only have.5 slots and 5 spokes.
