Can Am stamped on wheels made in USA. No bevel on lug nut bores 4 1/8 center opening. Wheels have ten 1½ holes in them. Lug nut pattern is 5 on 5½. What in the world did I buy? Tony

	I am measuring the offset from the back rim flange to the surface that contacts the hub. Yes it is 4 5/8.

	Spot on match Russ they are identical! Thanks, I now know they wont fit mine without machine work. The bore is too small to go over the front hub.

	Looks like these things fit a M151 I don't think I will modify them to fit My 2A. If anyone needs them I will sell them cheap. Shipping will be a deal killer, they are very heavy. New never had tires on them.
