Just how many different style steel rims did willys use? I have 12 original steel rims and I just bought 4 more and I think I'm up to three different kinds. They all look similar and thank GOD I have enough of the same kind to make complete sets for my jeeps and my Bantam trailer. These are the old style rims I'm talking about. Some have a round bead around the lug bolt holes and some others have less round bead and then there are a few with the round bead with a smaller bead next to the round bead

Any ideas?
