Yet Another Wheel Identification!

Does anyone know the manufacturer/model of this rim?

Saw them on a nice '91 on Ebay, love to see a set on my as-yet-purchased project Vette!
Thanks!

I thought so too at first, but the Gotti's I've seen are a flat on the outer surface, they don't have that raised platform the bolts are sitting in on this model of wheel. Unless it's a different model of Gotti than I've ever seen on a Vette before...

Found my book and its hard to say. They are ether Compomotive wheels or Gotti wheels. Ronals and ACT wheels bare no resemblance. Or could be just some cheap knock offs.

I Googled around and found some BMW sites that mention these as Epsilon Southern Ways, but some folks were arguing that the SW's were the mesh style. But you are right! The maker is Epsilon, just don't know the exact model. Damn, I'd love to find some just like those in the picture for my soon to exist '92-'93 ragtop project Vette! Thanks for your awesome help!
