my original ones didn't have a small countersink, just a straight hole. i did give the ones on my ammaco a little countersink just to get rid of the sharp edge. here's a pic of my originals before i stripped them of the silver ano. sorry not the best pic

My originals look like they were drilled from inside the rim (obviously on an unbuilt wheel...
) and then a larger drill was used to remove the burrs from the outside where the rim tape goes.
Looks like it was done by a blind monkey on crack though.....
