the pins? why? because they are bound to be knocked off in the rush of pitting?
The types of wheels are called knock offs. One bolt holds the whole tire on. Mainly used on race cars or a lot of the older/newer sports cars. They were called that, because in the old days the center lug was a 3 pronged lug (see older Jaguars) and all it took was a rubber mallet to knock off the wheel for tire/wheel changes.
