I think they are Appliance Wheels. They look like what Dick Cepek sold when they were in business.

I have them on my Baja. Original bought at a local tire shop that I got second hand. The “rivets” are plastic. I popped them out and just left holes blank and repainted them

This is from the 1987 Dick Cepek catalog showing the wheels they sold when they were still in business.
The white wheels are at the top.
