I recently bought these wheels for my Ae86, and nobody seems to be able to tell me what they are. I was told they are Ansen mags, but others have told me they are Ronals. Whatever they are, they are at least 30 years old and were apparently bought as aftermarket wheels for a 240z. They have zero curb-age. The mags came with Ansen center caps, but i have seen Konig rims before with Motegi center caps so i don't consider that cement proof. They are 14"s on a 114.3 bolt pattern. Apparently they were used for about 1500kms, and then stored in a shed for 30 years.
So what are they, and what are they worth.
Cheers!

Ronals usually have their name cast into the spokes. Sometimes in front sometimes in back.
Western also sold a lot of wheels in that style, but I'd trust the caps, they're probably Ansens.

Western, American Racing and Carroll Shelby wheels all made ones similar to that.
4 lug turbine wheels- probably a "General Lee" knockoff.
Vectors, to bad the original sizing is so weak.
They look like Western's to me. Very popular back in the '70's and '80's. Not very expensive then.
The Pirelli ?CN36? ( is that right?...) tires might be worth something to someone looking for period correct tires. The wheels, I didn't like in the 70's when they were popular, so I withhold comment.

They are worth absolutely nothing. In fact, they have negative value. You should ship them to me at your expense. 
Those wheels are badass. The only cooler wheels are slots.
(hmm, if you ship something with negative value across the border, does that mean the government pays YOU duty?)
Some 80's Buicks had a similar wheel
So this really didn't clear it up for me! What is a mint set worth?

They look like American Racing Vectors, which can be had for around $380 a set.
