I was afraid of seeing something nice on something not nice. Thanks for the pleasant surprise.

^You can still buy Schmidt Modernlines that look nearly identical.

Pricey though.

Wheels. Rims are part of the wheels.

And don't forget to get off Otto's lawn, either.

Naw, I just wanted everyone to look at just the rims of the wheels.

Once I saw the Ronal Turbos, I was wondering if these were going to be included.

I'd totally rock Ronal Teddybears on a Miata. Or a creeper van.

Are those worth anything? My friend has a set we picked up about 10 years from a junkyard for $75, and we always see them at swap meets with the gold or black trim as shown for under $200/set.

I always thought

Rims = the metal part

Tires = the rubber part

Wheels = Rims + Tires.

Porsche fitment Gottis in the correct sizes and offsets can go for up to 2 grand a set.

The similar looking Zender sports fetch a grand in 15X7 4X100

But the damn near identical Chevy s10 wheels from the late 80's are probably worthless.

What he said. This particular set is an American Racing Replica of the Gotti J55C. Going for $350 shipped on Ebay right now.

That set is 5x114, zero offset 15x7. If i could fit them i'd buy them because i think they look great.

Saw this kind of wheel at a bike show. I then stabbed my eyes out with a soldering iron. Unngh.
