Anyone see these before? I have a set of five, and they look like the early fat lip Rivieras, but they're not all aluminum. They are actually a steel rim with an aluminum front. 2 pieces together.
If you look closely, you can see on the front edge where the steel and aluminum pieces meet.

| Do you have any idea of the date of manufacture? The wheel has some unusually "modern" characteristics- especially the deep "lip". Don't have clue as to what they are, but I think they're neat. Would go nice on a VW Resto-custom. |
