Rock Ring Design Help

[mikey_d05]

I'm having a set of hummer rims recentered.

I can't come up with a rock ring that quite looks right to me.

First attempt:

Second attempt:

I'm not really sold on the look of either of them. The centers have a sort of "swept" look to them but everything I can get to look decent has sort of a rounded non-threatening look to it.

Anybody have any suggestions? MS paint suggestions are ok as well.

Are the 8 holes around the rim for the bolts that hold the wheel together?

 

[mikey_d05]

The ones around the very edge are to let crap drain out. My beadlocks routinely get filled with junk because they don't have something like that.

The inner ring of holes is for the clamping bolts.

Here are my one offs. Designed them in Adobe Illustrator and sent the file to a friend that runs the automated torch/plasma cutter at his work, went in on a 4x8 sheet of steel with him and he even welded them up for me.
do yours in 3/16 plate to save some weight. These are 1/4"

When designing these I purposly avoided anything that gave the wheel a direction. I wanted my spare to be the exact same thing as all the rest and it just seemed a lil easier to work with.

Still gets packed with mud even with the holes around the edges. Funny when you spray the wheel off and then drive it your tires get a wild star pattern on them from the mud being pushed outta the holes. Circus truck!

just copy a spartan shield from "300" and make the bolt holes look like battle damage.
