Default Name these wheels???

Anyone know what wheels these are?

I think they look great





Edit- I found them, but I'll keep this up to see if someone else can name them.

That picture emphasizes my issue with black wheels, you can't see them!

I have the same issue with all black wheels....but I do like the look of the ones with the chrome lips like the ones I posted above.

Yeah, I have satin black on my Spyder and like the contrast with a lighter car, but wish you could see the detail better! The wheels on the Spyder are great looking but you can't see them well enough in black!

I'm a fan of the Spyder and simpler designs as they are easier to clean. If it worked I'd be happy with one spoke.

yeah, my first choice was silver, but I'm loving the platinum satin that mine came with....they look great on white car and they literally are impossible to tell if they're dirty
