Was I hoodwinked? I dug these out this afternoon. Never really paid any attention to them before. They resemble a 15" crowsfoot style bus wheel but the 4 indents on the inner section are more rounded and shallow. Also theres no logo or date stamp on them. And the final kicker is indentations for hubcaps instead of clips. Rare gems or garbage?
