The Allen Screws fit in a groove on the spinner to hold it in place, there may also be an O-Ring on the shaft of the spinner to help stabilize it in the hub.

Hi Jeff:
Many thanks. Nice looking wheels in both black and white. Mine are black. Shouldn't be a problem from here out.

Just in case those aren't Compomotive wheels, my American racing 454's have a fake hub that pushes through from the rear and has a lip that holds it in the rear of the wheel. The spinners simply spin onto that as though it is a normal hub. Since it is all aluminum, it may be sticking a bit due to galling. You may need to use a hefty shot of penetrating oil or heat to remove them if they are stuck. |

Hi:
Thanks for the next lead. I'm going to give it another visual (using flashlight this time :-)) and take things from there. I'm pretty sure they're Compomotives (identical to Jeff's fotos) but never can tell.
Another related question: Jeff, what tire sizes are you running? I've currently Front Tires P245/50/R15 Rear Tires P305/50/R15 and am thinking they're a little wide.
Many thanks in advance.

The allen screw is small, ~1/8th" or less. It also sets into the hole, countersunk style.

Hi Jeff:
Thanks for the note, and the spinner is off. The allen set screw is mounted radially through the wheel center portion locking into a groove machined into the spinner circumference. Pretty small, and a piece of cake now.
Thanks again. I'm sure I'll have more.
Cheers.
Kirk
