I’m guessing Mangle made them. From Brazil.

Not Mangles ... It's MANGELS
The Wheels in question were made by MANGELS ...
Pacific - Italia made them also ... BRAVA

Thank You that seems to be them.
I really like them
Similar to stock but unique. And Chrome
Though the chrome is rough.
I will have to keep them

These are the only two companies that I have ever seen produce these wheels ... MANGELS & Pacific-Italia / PI
Mangels usually marked their wheels as PI had minimal markings, if any at all.
They're nice wheels 15" x 5 1/2" ... that size wheel can accommodate many tire choices. |
