They are showing up on eBay from time to time. Expensive, look really cool. But, I'm not sure what the advantage is, and it's a big enough PITA to remove the 12 that are on the standard wheel, let alone 24!

Here is I picture of one. That would be a lot of work to take apart.

I saw 4 truckloads of Hummers going down IH-10 toward New Orleans 2 weeks ago. All of them were upfitted with armour and all had 24 bolts on the wheels.

Is there a corrolation between armour upfit and 24 bolt wheels? I have not seen any 'regular' Hummers with 12 bolts.

The new FRAG-6 HMMWV's all have the 24 bolt wheel to hold the extra pressure put on the tires due to the weight of the vehicle. My company painted all the Frag-6 armor that stuff is heavy.

Marine Corps Frag 5 Armor trucks all have the 24 bolt rims as well as the Geared Fan Drive. We get them in all the time. I haven't seen Frag 6 yet. I'm sure they're on the way.

What are the differences in the 2 styles of 24 bolt wheels ?

1 style all evenly spaced

2 style studs are paired in two's

The rims with paired studs have a slightly higher load rating.
