[urq] Ronal wheel oddity?

[Thatcher Hubbard]

I've got two of those as well.  The PO had curbed one of the rear
wheels pretty bad, so he replaced them both.  So I've got the stock
6Js on the front and the 7Js on the back (at least during the winter I
do).  I have center caps for them, they are silver and say 'Ronal' in
the middle.  I don't put them on the car.
