They had a more affordable line of import wheels a few years back, and I think I remember them looking like that.

They looked similar to that, but that's not them. Don't know who makes those though.

Those aren't the Weld Racelites, that's for sure.
My bet would be Keizer Race Wheels.

Here are the Keizer's that the race101 guys used, compare them to these pics...

Most likely they're a better wheel than the race lights. Weld discontinued them, i'm assuming because they bent if you looked at them wrong.

how much did the keizers retail for? this guy is asking 250 for the wheels and slicks and i've already got some lensos, so i just need the slicks. i was hoping i could resell the wheels and get my money back at least.

I would think you could get $200 for the wheels alone easy. I see local guys all the time looking for cheap wheels to put their slicks on.

Yes those are keizer wheels, those exact wheels were actually designed for road racing sport compacts as such but turned out to be a great budget 4x100 13x8 wheel pre-millenium era. I'd defenately pick them up for that price considering you could sell the wheels without tires for that price.

I'd also like to say everytime I see those wheels I'm reminded of Booga's(Shorty) old hatchback that was the first street honda on the east coast in the 10's right out of NYC, long before the maryland boys and others. RIP Booga
