wheels - John Sweet - 21-02-2020
Can somebody tell me please, what is the purpose of the two tiny holes on the upper edge of the wheels. Is it to let out any water that may get inside of the tyre.

Since, the rim edges are hollow where the metal is turned over, I think the holes are to let out any water that manages to find its way in, otherwise it would slosh about and cause long term corrosion.

Deja Vu all over again - wasn't this asked a few weeks ago ?

Sorry, jamais vu, for me. (aka Joseph Heller)
RE: wheels - John Sweet - 21-02-2020
Sorry Tony, I did not see this question a few weeks ago. If I did I would not have asked.

Maybe it is just me miss-remembering
