Re: 15" x 6" OE wheels

I see that review now. Looks like Dextar re-invented the 6-lug wheel center. A unique center stamping apart from tradition. I thought the photo provided showed the center ridge looking a bit wide. Not to mention they broke the code on disc brake wheel = 4 nubs/drum brake wheel = 3 nub. Also no venting, same as Wheel Vintiques 8-lugs. The longer I live the more knowledge I have gained has become inaccurate or irrelevant. Too bad they had to go and change things up (for no apparent reason). It's great these wheels are out there for old truck guys but they missed their chance for mounting correct hubcaps. Oh well. But all the more reason for someone to reproduce the 8-lugger caps
