Default Wheel spinners...where's that topic?

I saw a topic about a month ago that showed pix of tons of wheels with straight spinners vs swept style, with cones or without. The search function doesn't seem to work for me at all so I can't find it. Can anoyone provide a link? Thanks

PS How come if I type in any word in the search function in comes up with no matches?

I ahve them on my car... I ended up using the center adapters from Mid America and the spinners themselves from Eckler's. The Mid AM adapters are shorter and the spinners from ecklers look better IMHO...this pic is from the CI showing how much front brake I used during the OMGWAGBK run, but you can see the spinner.
