Lots of small, minor, changes, probably none of which were documented.

The first ones, in '66, lacked the J-hump that made them suitable for radials.

Then we got J profiles but still with the large hole for the large valve stem 
and a small recess in the center disk to clear the valve stem.

Then there we got J-profiles, with small valve stem holes, but still with the 
center disk recess.

Then, maybe by the end of '69, we got J-profiles, small valve stem holes, no 
center disk recess.

Up until now they were painted black all over.

Starting in '70, J-profiles, small hole, no recess, painted black all over, but 
oversprayed silver on the outside, only where the hubcap didn't cover.
