Guys, can anyone help me identify these wheels? I have three that are 15 x 7 and two that are 15 x 8. They are Chevrolet bolt pattern and fit Corvette disc brake calipers. I'm sure they are from the late 60's and they are magnesium. There are no markings other than the sizes. I'd like to sell them, but I don't know what they are. I inherited them from a friend.

They look like American Racing magnesium torq thrusts

They look just like American Torque Thrust, but there's no wording saying that. Strange.

Most of the American Magnesium wheels never had any wording on the inside.

Those look very similar to the American Racing Torque Thrust wheels that I had. I sold them for $550 and the guy that purchased them from me had them on eBay for $999.

Guys, thank you for the feedback. They appear to be legitimate American Torque Thrust D wheels from the late 60's. For some reason there are three of the 7&quot; and two 8&quot;. I wish there were four of the 7&quot; for a complete set. I have someone that's interested in them from this site. I probably should posted this in the Parts For Sale, but I had no idea what they were or their value.
