I have seen these wheels on a few cars lately. And I have a set on one of my cars. Does anyone recognize what they are?

Thanks,
Steve

Look like Empi

They look like Empi knock offs made by Spirit.

Just sold a set to a friend with tires for $200. They needed refinishing.

I used to see these on bugs with a chrome outside, chrome knock offs, and body color paint on the spokes....

Nice looking wheels. VW backset. Depending on the tire size you might need to roll the fenders.

I had to run 185s when I had mine. I liked the look but eventually swapped for 2L Fuchs to run wider tires.

I have some polished ones on mine. 185-65-15 is about as wide as you can go.
