Does anyone know who makes these wheels?

They kind of look like Volks to me. But then again, they remind me of Ferrari wheels too. Just a guess.

Volk Racing does have a wheel that looks just like it....had the same wheels on my Miata way back. Not a great wheel ( like a a Fikse) , but it looks nice....

Actually, I did some more internet researching and I believe they are the classic 3-piece 5 spoke 540 series from HRE performance. Could just be me, but the center cap looks like the HRE symbol. Anybody have any insight on this?

damn...it seems like everyones movin from the RX-7 Forum to this forum nowadays.

about the wheels...not too sure if they are the HRE 5 spokes (the 545) cause here is a pic of it:



it seems as if the HRE 545 has significantly thicker spokes.

either way, those are some awesome lookin wheels!

Those are Kinesis wheels. if you have a 911 Turbo, you're not putting Katana wheels on it!

Nobody's still 100% sure what they are still . My guess is either they are some new CEC's or maybe even a new set of Techart's, whatever they are they look really nice
