Default Name these Wheels?!?!?!?!

Hi Guys,

Please see the below pics of the wheels I am in love with to go on my red 73. If you know the name, please share. Props to Demon Kinight from cardomain.

As a side note: I just ordered my FI suped up 383 stroker from http://www.enginefactory.com/.

I cant wait. It looks like I might be around 500 crank hp.

Thanks,

They look similar to a Centerline wheel...the Lazer wheel.

but the Boyd GT wheel looks very similar..........

the intro Emotion wheel looks closest...as the wheel seems to have soft lip.

They are Budnik Grid 5 wheels. I believe they are discontinued since they are no longer pictured on their website. They are X series wheels. I guess there are too many wheels close to this design and maybe they were not a big seller. Check out Budnik Gassers and GTXs they are similar and are very popular. Plus Budnik now offers the wheels with either stepped lips or flat lips and you can get polished or brushed hoops or lips as well as powder coated centers. Hope this helps.
