All I know is that these are "Made in Australia" as it says on the rim. The size is 17x8.5 5x114.3 with unknown offset. Please help solve the question of these mystery wheels...

Prime wheels, american racing, eagle alloy

those names come to mind when I see the wheels, is there no sticker on the inside?
when you get tires check there for sticker

Unless wheels from those companies were made in Australia...

didn't notice that part, but all i said was that those wheels reminded me of those brands.

the sticker part was my actual contribution to this thread

please... no more black wheels with chrome lip

i like the way it looks, but now everyone and their grandma is running some 5 spoked black wheel with a chrome lip.

how about a dark gunmetal finish in the middle?
