It's more of a "Bargain Basement" wheel that was made back in the late 80's - early 90's.

Without center caps, I think they would be best used as spares.

With caps and freshly painted, like any other generic 5 spoke wheel, which is to say, fairly decent but nothing special.

IMO, you have a spoon sw388/regamaster evo replica. Many here in the board have/had Rota Slipstreams (another spoon/regamaster copy). However picky others may be, if you like 'em - keep them. For a set of 4 straight, aluminum wheels, $100 is cheap.

Check out the last pic for yet another, very similar wheel. Leave the center caps off.

sw388/evo and the slipstream thread/pics below...

This isn't the forum for visual opinions, but I think they'd look best as-is. Changing the color won't really bring out some hidden luster, since they're designed around huge center caps.
