Re: who make these rims?

holes look odd because it is a five blade wheel with a 6 hole pattern. Not sure who makes them.

Loooks like a custom one off made set or wheels. I have never seen a wheel drilled like that and I used to own a tire wheel shop

Those are very similar to Cruiser Alloy brand (Canyon style)

Re: who make these rims?

I often wonder why today's manufacturers are sticking lots of extra little nuts & bolts around the outside of their wheelsl. It's hard to beat a clean wheel like TTII or Coys or others without the extra clutter. imho of course.

It is supposed to simulate a true 3 piece wheel. I don't like the look, and won't own a set because they are a biotch to clean around.

Re: who make these rims?

The wheel makers are just trying to come up with a new look. I guess they've already done every design there could be so now they are doing things like this to make them different for cheap.
I have to say the aftermarket alloy wheel industry lost me a long time ago.
