It does sound important. I'll check too, next time I have a screw loose.

It is not really fair to give us such a straight line.... How can we not bite?

Generally not as MOST rims have receasses in the general area. VERY FEW have a full flat back

Yep. The photo of mine seems to show the screw at the edge of the indentation but hard to say for sure, without pulling a wheel off.. John T.

+1 True

AS a general rule "jack screw" holes are not countersunk . And retainer screws always line up with a threaded hole in the axle flange . At least that's been my experience in nearly 60 years of maintaining my own vehicles . YMMV .
