Nope, they're not Kinesis Supercups.... I have a set of those too!

The only other company that I know were making "proper" speedline reps was Trevont in France, so these are probably by them. Beautifully made.

The Kinesis use a different bolt design to the Trevont (if these are) and also has a very slightly narrower spoke design - see the 3 variants below (pictures from the basement...)!

Interesting stuff, if you're a wheel freek like me.

Your car looks great. Would you mind posting the wheel widths and offsets plus tire specs?

Not quite BMW Nogaro - but very close... The lips on those wheels are polished & then ceramic coated.

Wheels have always been one of my favorite things - I don't think I've ever owned a car that I didn't buy a set of wheels for... Such an easy way to completely change and personalize your car.
Yoiu, sir, need to check yourself into wheel rehab!
