Thanks, Mark. Teams that use rivets to attach tread to wheels get extra scrutiny from inspectors. If the rivets are small, buried in the tread material and between tread extrusions, they are usually allowed. Haphazard installation of rivets get suggestions on how to replace/repair in order to pass inspection. At least that is the theory.
