Yeah, they're truly old. But in good shape. I want to figure out what they are to see if I should hold onto them, or let them go...or put them on something.

Probably more a case of there being no market for 13" rims, no body really wants them, save a few people. They won't fit on most cars and it's hard to get decent tires for them.

Yeah, since the company went out of business in the late 80's, early 90's.

Actually, it's more or less due to the fact that BRS' didn't produce many to begin with. They never were a big company, and definitely didn't last too long (compared to a few others from their day).

Do yours have the Enkei logo stamped on them? These don't have that logo.
