Default ID these wheels?

Hi... A friend of mine was looking into buying these wheels, and all he has to go by is the picture... He asked me to ID them, and i have no idea. Any help would be great!

From my experience, and I could be wrong, most wheels that were factory drilled with four- and five-lug patterns came out of Japan.

I'd ask the seller if they are a true two-piece wheel or not. I see it has bolts around the outside, but cheap wheels use fake bolts. Real two-piece wheels may help determine whether they're just something like Motegis or such, or if they're a higher-value Japanese wheel.

These wheels look kind of like WORK Euroline SE replicas. Below is a real WORK Euroline SE (note the centercap and spoke difference).



I though they might be Motegi DP5s, but again, the centercap isn't right.


Frankly, I'd as for more pictures.

It looks like it's been redrilled... I wouldn't get those. Most rims that have a universal 4x100/4x114 lug area have the holes shaped in a square.

Thats not necessarily ture. Some of the top companies, such as Rays, SSR, WORK, etc., do dual drills (e.g. 4x100 and 5x100). My Rays wheels have them.

No I know, but I was pretty sure that the universal ones have a square pattern so they can have both 4x100 and 4x114 on the same wheel. I've never seen wheels that have the two patterns pretty much on top of each other. It looks really weak at the hole area. But if that's the way some companies do it then I stand corrected.

By the way, that's usually what it looks like if in fact it is mating a 4xsomething and a 5xsomething. But the wheels in question have two four lug patterns pretty much on top of each other.

Yeah, you're right. I didn't notice that. Maybe they are a redrill.
