The manufacturers of the wheels should be labeled/engraved on the inner portion of the rim. I had gold/silver rims on my 95' like that and they were made by Ultra Wheels.

Those wheels don't look so bad, but I wish they were 17s or even 18s then i'd rock a set as winter wheels.

I remember seeing these wheels on a few older SC's. Apparently they were a dealer option. They look way better than the 15 inch saw blades from the 92-94 SC300's.

these are way less ugly than any of the other SC stock wheels, except maybe the 97+ 5 spoke. i happen to like the classic mesh design...
