    I'm glad he brought it up because, if you scrape the dirt and rust off, that wagon wheel looks exaclty like what I see a lot of folks riding on around here.

    It is hardly obscure as it is the proper terminology for something. I hadn't realized that they had stopped making multi-piece wheels.

    And when someone walks up and says "nice rims" I assume that they are an idiot because they clearly do not know what the term means. Just because people use a term in a certain manner, does not make them correct.

    I am going to have to take a look at that thread, I always thought magazine was something you read. Mean time I am going to clean my rims still not sure wheels are.

    I do believe there is also a valve stem on the upper rightside of the rim, I mean wheel.
