when i first saw them thats what i thought, or acorns. but one side of wheel is blank, and on the other it says MADE IN U.S.A twice, one of which says SKYWAY underneath. they are both a moulded part of the wheel. i woundered if these are TUFF originals, as apposed to TUFF II. or some other variation, glad of any help with this.
