I've got an early 'fat' wheel, late 1969 I should say. As you can see on the picture, the rim is very fat. And it's small in diameter. I love it.

I'm always curious and notice this. Anybody have any knowledge on these differences?



#1Red one is crinkled and has a number stamped on the inner metal circle. #2 has the gold spokes and the number 1 1 stamped in the circle. #3 came off an 80 and it is very soft grip , the car might of been an se. Now I notice that in the center some have 2 notches and some of my other ones have one. I'm assuming that a change in years.

Yes, most likely a redbird, I was more interested by the 11 stamped in the circle
