My buddy bought a Manx clone from his brother, he is using it for 6 months then selling it to me. We were told the wheels are rare. Looked thru all 31 pages of this thread and didn't see them. so either they are not rare or??

They are Ulta wheels. Used for many years in off road racing. The original ones are not made anymore.
You can still get them, the outer lip has been change is really the only difference and are being sold through PRT wheels.
Come in both natural and black finish. _________________ Joseph

Ultra stopped making the wheels a few years back. PRT reintroduced them a while ago with a Little changed to lip on wheel.
PRT Wheels can be found on Facebook.
The wheels come with and without beadlocks, both in natural and black finish.
Come in two sizes, 15x4,and 15x6.5in. _________________ Joseph

Hi new to the site, and hope i'm doing this correctly. I found a set of 4 of these 14" alloy wheels. I believe they are magnesium and they are nearly perfect. Anyone know what they are called or where they are from or what they are worth? This is part of a small pacage of used parts that must all be purchased as one unit.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew what brands of wheels these are? Scored 'em quite cheap for a set of 5, I just like the look because it's different than any other 4x130 bug with EMPIs etc (which mine also on EMPIs currently)
