Anybody have an idea on what kind of rims these are? I am interested in picking them up but the seller has no idea who the manufacture is.

240zx is infamous around these parts
They look a lot like Champion's RS98 wheel. Here's a link for you to compare:

I don't think they are Champion RS98's. Look closer at the center and around the lip area. I can't see the other two attached pictures as they are too small.

after looking at them further...it also seems that the spokes on the car come out further then the ones on the champion wheels...

Close but I don't those are it either. From what I can see in the original picture it looks like a two piece rim? Take a look at the front lip, there is a slight gap. Also the CC's fork design (wider ones) comes to a point towards the lug holes. Nice polish finish on them too.

Looks more like these TSW VX1 but I don't know if they made 18"-19" rims (deep dish)

knock offs dont pay very much for them, if they are real they will have a name cast into the inside of the wheel somewhere to take ownership of their product
