I need some info regarding Gtr tory wheels.
I have a set of what I believe are genuine gtr wheels.
They have the slots (8) as per gtr rims, however they have bumps where the hub caps would normally go on a normal rim...
Is this a gtr rim or not?

I was under the impression that the gtr rims dont have these bumps. however these ones do.

any help would be apreciated.

the "nibless" rims were only fitted to later LJ GTR and
XU1,(LC had nibs) proberly from 1/7/72, would need to check
however if you look at the date and size stamped inside the
rim, date from 69 to 73 and size 5.5JJ, standard rims were 4.5JJ

Yes, but wouldnt a 1980s date stamp give a hint that theyre not Torana items.
