Look at the rear hub and you see that all the rivets show on the outside of the left flange and all rivets show on the inside of the right flange. I don't see why the rivets in front wouldn't all show from both sides as in the rear. (In which case I wouldn't understand what holds them in.)Speaking of inside/outside it seems the rivets were alternated, the heads show that every other one was installed from outside. I believe the center shot you referred to is of the rear hub.
