Does anyone recognise this rim?

I believe the pic below is of a wheel that was custom made by a south African company that does some race prep for cars. I read an article about it a while ago and I think it was a one off, not a production run but I could be wrong.

I'm interested in sourcing a set or something similar if anyone can point me in the right direction.

Also what is the best place for specialized vintage looking rubber with the side wall etchings eg "hoosier" etc?

many thanks

It looks like this happened to a Fuchs.

There were a few wheel manufacturers who made Fuchs-based modular wheels using BBS or similar wheel halves. Jongbloed and HRE come to mind.

For the tire scripting, Hoosier still does that scripting on their race tires. I'm sure someone else can chime in with a vendor who can do this custom.
