The chrome could be covering the date codes.
Chrome smoothies are hard to come by anymore and hardly seen.
They are not an easy jobby to do either. The centers need to be removed from the hoops in order to chrome it correctly.
I don't see any holes for hubcap clips... Hard too see, but if they have the nubs for the hubcap they could be type 3.

i thought type3 when i first bought them but they dont have the nubs for the hubcap and they also dont have the look/feel of a stock wheel
they also have a different offset than all my stock wheels |
