Hey don’t lump me into that diatribe. I accepted ripplewalls as a regional idiom. End of comments on that.
As for getting out more, I’ve traveled to 44 states and 11 countries. Some for stays that lasted as long as 3 months. I was never in the service but I Thank You for your service, TSM.
Sincere thanks Mustang. Apologies for wrongly lumping you in. It was clearly wrong, and I hope you can accept my apology for my error. I promise I won’t make such a mistake again.
I’m at 21 states and five other countries. There’s many more I’d like to visit, but the pension won’t support the travel. My favorite other country so far is England. I loved England.
And now, ,I think I’ll try to help some people with car problems… 
I’m also sorry you never got to serve. Living with others from all over the country, serving in different and living in parts of the country, and spending time in other countries of the world greatly broadens ones acceptance of differences.
Yes, whatever you do, don’t get DRAWN into personal attacks… 
You have NO IDEA where I have been or what my background is in this regard. You ASSume you’re the only one with a broad experience in travel and regional differences. I’ll call you the pot from now on…
For the wheels in the image posted, is nothing more for athletics. However, in some cases as shown in other images above, some wheels are designed to be driven off road and have what is known as bead locks. These bead locks would retain or secure the tire to the wheel as not to create a weak zone for off roading. IE: Sliding down a rocky cliff, wheel & tires would come in contact with a rocky edge or cliff thus could dislodge the tire from the wheel.
