I replaced a tire on the Ford Cdn commercial dump truck last week, and did a quick assessment of the rims that were on the truck. I think there were 3 or 4 different styles, from the safety ring, to a 2 piece safety ring, and even a drop center rim. It is going to be hard to decide what the original rim is out of the bunch. In the end I think I'll be satisfied just to get the 7 rims I need for the set in whatever configuration they might be in.

Sorry, but I can't help on the 5° query. I can tell you though, that to make a ° symbol on the computer, you hold down the alt button and punch in 0176 and magically a ° will appear. Of course, us oldtimers will never remember these shortcuts, so I have it marked (along with how to make a ¢ sign) on the chalkboard next to the computer. Imagine that.....I use a chalkboard to make my computer work.
