Two styles of OEM steel rims ghostdragon, the original round hole steelies, and the later 5-spoke style. They are functionally the same, but the 5-spokers do look so much better. We're coming into "steelie season" where those who have 'em and don't need 'em, become very popular folks with the people who don't have them and want them.

I got some and don't want them. I'll be getting new rims at the end of the month though so that'll help me and maybe I can sell my steelies that look like the ones on the left.

Left them all parked today, I'm "slumming it" in the Wife's old Honda. She's been complaining of a misfire at idle, and sure enough, its rougher than a cob right now. Oh well, I needed something to tinker with over the weekend.
