Riveara wheels. There are two style one has a flat face on the spokes the ones in that ic look like they dont and they are more rare. may even be made by a different company. I had a set on mine and heard they are sought after by the VW crowd but they seem to go for about the same price from what iv seen. Just found this aparantly they were a dealer option called formula V http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=430792

Is that a photo? Hard to tell...

Those are rivieras, I have a smooth set like that a several sets with the raised bump.
I prefer the smooth ones and I never had an issue with 205/50/15 tires fitting on those rims.
