Hi Ben, I don't know, if it brings you any closer in knowledge, but here are a few details shots of a MIG wheel (by the fighter jet company Mikoyan).
It looks like the "internal spokes" we've talked earlier about regarding the Fluidisks, are really only the overlaps of the pieces, from the side it looks like there is some rim, but it is also possible that it is only two rings cut from carbon/kevlar. and the rest is foam.
The last picture is a different wheel, maybe Fluidisk, thee you can see, that the core is a regular(?) spoked rim...
