    I believe the Hummer models were 36 spoke. Might start looking in that direction to start with. At least you can either identify it as one or eliminate it as one. Paps

          Hi

          WHeel is a New Departure, SOld optional for many marques.
          Not a good wheel as the brass bound with grease, and braking was compromised.
