Default Rare rim find

Went to a local garage and saw a set of rims for sale. Looked like the Spoon or Regamaster rim but look closely and i saw it prints "designed by Tsuchiya"

Now i didnt know he designed or helped design such a rim but it looks really close to the Spoon design.

Anyone saw this set of rims before?

Ohh and its going on sale for USD300 , too bad 1 rims is bent.

I held up one of the rim without tires and they feel as light as the Spoon rim.

No Desmond sticker on the inside though.

For myself at least, I'm interested in them as light track wheels. I don't care about the JdM bl!nG, y0.
