What wheels are these...?
I've never been a wheel expert. I keep getting compliments on them (personaly I think they are ugly) so I'm curious who makes them.
Also any suggestions on what to do with them until I get ready to buy some new ones (there are more pressing mechanical needs)....? You can see that Bubba just took a can on spry pain to them (and didn't mask them very well)

Sean,
No idea but if you want to bring one/all over and polish it up with the die-grinder/buffing wheel I'll be off starting the 8th. They don't look bad on your car, and would probably look a whole lot nicer polished. It took about an hour each to do mine.

Those look like Panasport Wheels.

Usually seem them on small imported sports cars, MG's and such.

Re: What wheels are these...? (Monkeywrench)
To each his own. They look a bit like my wheels...."doncha" think? Mine are Western wheels.....8X15s. The spokes look about the same but the outer part is different. These step down in two stages while mine appear to be deeper and single stepdowns.
