Dear Mr. Smith: This responds to your December 6, 1979, letter asking questions abou Standard No. 211, *Wheel Nuts, Wheel Discs, and Hub Caps*. In particular, you ask whether winged projections are permitted in a rim as long as they do not extend beyond the lip of a rim or the sidewall of a tire.; When the standard was issued, the agency concluded that winge projections could catch the clothing of children or pedestrians thereby posing safety hazard. As a result the standard prohibits the use of all winged projections regardless of the extent to which they extend from a rim. The standard however, only prohibits winged projections and does not affect other projects from a rim.; Sincerely, Frank Berndt, Chief Counsel
