Wheel ID help
Just picked up some new rims and I can't seem to figure out what the heck they are. 3pc staggered 20's no markings on the inside at all. The only wheels I can find online that even resemble them slightly are Sevas R55 but I didn't pay anywhere near what they should be worth, so I'm sketchy on that. Chances are they're probably some cheap brand but any help would be much appreciated!

I'll snap a pic between the lips but it looks to have a chrome lip, seperated by silicone with another inside lip. These would be my first 3pc's but I'm almost sure they come apart.

If you need confirmation on if they are 3 piece or not in the case of these the rivets should be visible from the inside of the rim since the rivets would be holding the lip to the barrel. Post a pix of the bad side of the rims. Also a 3pc wheel would have the manufacture information on the backside of the rim as well. GL hope they fit properly!

LMAO 2k.....I wish I could afford that, more like 150$! I'm pretty positive they're 3pc because the rivets seem to be holding the parts together and the big strip of silicone running in the middle. But they do have some rash probably need to have that one lip in the pic re chromed but I brought them because my other rims are beat up from driving through the city. Trying to find some center caps tho. I thought that maybe I could find an aftermarket chrome lexus cap.

The bead of silicone should not be visible inside of the barrel behind where the rim face meets the wheel/rive mount. Should only be visible inside of the rim where the tires are facing it.
I've seen 2 piece wheels with rivets that look like they can be removed but it was just for looks. Hell I've had cheap forged rims that look like 3 piece. From the pic above it looks like one of the heads towards the upper left has a rivet thats broken off. Ususally the heads dont break off like that.

Maybe its the angle of the picture, but that wheel looks bent to me on both inside and outside up towards the 11 o'clock.

Yep, I saw that too. It probably is slightly off and the picture makes it visible. LOL but like I said they're probably a cheap brand. I just brought them because I needed something to slap on till I save my duckets.
