Hi all, new to the site, and I wondered if your members could help me in wheel identification.
I have a set of 4 wheels I took off a 69 Chevelle before I sold it, and identifying them has become difficult.
They're similar to the Torq thrust, but have a steel rim. with the alloy center.
The alloy centers have steel ingots cast into the outside arms, and are welded to the steel rim.
I'm not sure what they are, and I'd like to identify them before I can properly sell them.

I had some like that on a 55 Chevy many many years ago , I think they were either ET's or Fentons .

Thanks for the welcome, and the responses..

I checked with ET wheels, their ET-V was a Torq-thrust knock off, was sand cast aluminum, and was marked ET.
These have a steel rim, with no markings, castings, or numbers at all.

They might be Superior or Western wheels??? But this is only a guess.
