The easist way to tell the difference at a glance is to look at the valve stem;
Typical Rubber stem = Solid Spoke.
The Hallows have a metal stem that is unmistakable and not interchangable.

Do the rules about the grooves and valve stems apply to Turbo Look wheels? My 98 RoW C2 came with these from factory and they in fact have smooth rear finish and metal stem valves. I believe they are 7.5"s and 10s (18" diameter of course).

How come you told me to run solid spokes on my Ruf then?
