Re: Does anyone know which brand wheel this is ?

I don't think it's a Centerline Champ 500 because they all had the Centerline stamped in the center section, and I don't think they built anything in uni-lug. It's not an American Racing Gambler I because they all had the size (i.e: 15x8) cast into the edge of the center section, and the rivets were smooth. Ultra made that style of wheel, as others did as well, such as Enkei.

What I do like about that wheel is that is has bolts, not rivets. Does it look like it's a 2-piece wheel from the back side? If it's a true 2-piece, then that wheel was a high-dollar item back in the day. I had a buddy who had a set of Joengblood (not sure on the spelling) wheels on his C-10 back in the 80s, and they look real similar to the wheels in your picture. Maybe that's what yours are.

Is there any casting marks or names in the backside of the wheel?
