Unfortunately there are no numbers on the 4 sets of rims I have. A  
pair with the rivets and spring clips, a pair with the rivets and no  
spring clips, a pair that someone re-chromed and buffed the rivets off  
and a pair with dimples.
Looks like someone needs to find a good replica of the rivets so they  
can be added after chroming.  They look like brass that has been  
chromed.  It would be a snap to add them to the  dimpled rings.
