Found it, Racinghart C4R.
how can I get these in a 17"??
Couldnt find a direct link to Racinghart???
I need these..not crazy about aftermarket wheels on my 67, but this would look sick.

If it's a true modular wheel as it appears, I don't see why they wouldn't have a 17" wheel available.

That looks very close..The 159s spokes are kinda curved...
I dont like the rivets much either but that wheel looks like it was carved outta billet by a laser. I love it.
I found the pic posted by corvetteronw in the C4 section.

Maybe unique looking, but good luck keeping those wheels clean. Looks like a nightmare.
