That looks like Darien's car, not sure on the wheels. I am sure someone will chime in

I call them "Curb Feelers" since the spokes stick out well past the rim lip.

IIRC they are made by Enkai, Momo, or Moda. Friend of mine has a damaged one bolted to the wall with a garden hose wrapped around it.

There were so many damage claims from curb rash, The Tire Rack stopped carrying them.

Yep, my old wheels. Mille Miglia Emotion 18X8.5 ET 52mm and 18x10 ET 64mm. I still have a set in my garage. They look pretty badass if you like the way they purposely stick out.

Yup, I had them on long enough to take the picture and decide I didn't want them. They looked nice from the side, but once you start to walk around the front or rear, you see the wheel face start to grow and eventually stick out approx 3-4"
