Eagle made a knockoff of the Weld wheel. I'd bet that's the Eagle version.

I agree, I think the Weld Typhoon had a flat center section, and the Eagle version was a little more dished.

I don't think Weld still offers them, do they?

5 lug had 7 slots, 8 lug had 6 ;) seems eagle still makes them. But i may be wrong. going to call tomorrow. I would rather have a polished wheel than a clear coated one. Next choice will be American racing outlaws 2

The OP posted a pic of Weld Typhoons, from what I can see. I picked an old Peterson's off the shelf from circa 2001 and found an ad.
