    There are at least three generations of this wheel. Can you show us the front and back of yours to match?

    Nice wheel. Is the back of the spokes hollow or do they have a strengthening rib in the center?

    The back of the spokes have a strengthening rib in them.
    Also, the outer "lip" on the backside of the wheel where it
    meets the tire has a raised rib that matches the rib on the
    front of the wheel. I hope this is of some help in possibly locating a match.
    Thanks again for your time and help.
