    Teach me, Obe Dave kenobe… these are called hurricane wheels and turbine wheels are similar but have several more spokes? Or are these and the ones with more spokes one and the same and refered to as either?

    Todd, that same question occurred to me the other day! What IS the difference between Hurricane and Turbine rims, Dave?

    At some point I’d like to gather some old literature that accurately discriminates between the styles of rims (Ansen, Western Cyclone, and others who made these vintage aluminum rims) so I can present hard, fast rules about the topic.

    Until that time, I call rims that have approx 10-16 splines or fins Hurricane rims (example here, though it is 8 lug http://www.akhwheels.com/pages/showWheel.php?pk=547 ) and rims that have about double that number of fins Turbine rims (example here http://www.ewillys.com/2014/12/28/4-hurricane-rims-dalton-ga-200/). On Craigslist and ebay folks tend to call anything with fins ‘Turbine rims’, so it does get confusing.

    Btw, if you look through AKH’s vintage wheel site for trucks you’ll see there are a variety of names for the slot rims: Ansen, Ansen Appliance, etc — http://www.akhwheels.com/pages/inventory.php?cat=6
