The old rims were in bad shape. The pilot hole and the lug pattern were almost impossible to find. I still...

    antifreeze in oil on my l245dt

    The part number for the gasket is 15321-03310. You need to make sure to see if you have any shims also,if you do the part # is 15321-03320. I didn't have any shims in mine but the job wasn't bad at all.I was a bit leary of adjusting the valves but it was not bad either.
