	Thanks, I couldnt tell if they were square or not lol. They are 4x114.3 and 13in, so possibly from Japan. They certainly arnt a wheel I recognize, I thought they were 100+ but they are nothing like the ones I was thinking of. I'm asking on behalf of someone else and thought the RR mindhive might be able to help. In my head I keep seeing them split-rimmed.

	They remind me of Allegro Equipe wheels, it’s taken me a couple of days to get to that Obviously, they aren’t them at all, sorry Also Audi 80 Ronals, which upon inspection aren’t them either They look like wheels I’ve seen, which makes me think they are OE on something, but I don’t know what, or they are just similar to something else in my head

	Thats pretty darn close. Ive looked up Western wheels and the Western cyclone is a good bet, but I cant see anything exactly the same yet.

	The spokes are further out at the center arent they, sort of the reverse of what you would expect. I'm sure I've seen them and thought they were a good looking wheel face on, but look like they need 3" more offset.

	They look more like the Cyclone Special wheel than anything else, but its still not quite there. Pretty much all wheels that fit a maxi properly have no offset to speak of, Its the rear arches that are a pain. I'm currently waiting for more pics to show the wheel at an angle.
