    I have two different variations of the 15x5.5 steel wheels. Both have the 3 hubcap bumps, but some are flat/smooth at the hub where the lug nuts go and some have bumps between the lug nuts. Which type is correct for the '69?

    Silly part is I have 3 of each, need 5 of whichever is correct.

    These are on the front of my ‘66, but the back two are smooth, lol! We’re in the same boat

    The correct Kaiser CJ rims have a smooth raised ring in the lug area, and 3 hubcap nubs.
    Beach66bum's photo looks to be possibly a Ford rim. Look for a small Ford oval near the center.
    I believe the 1980's AMC versions have 4 hubcap nubs with the smooth raise center..
