Ruote replica fuchs...ever hear of 'em?

I received this the other day to replace one of my cracked 9" euromeister wheels. I've never seen them before. It looks like they were mfg'd in 2007. A search turned up nothing. anybody know the story?

I found this.
MIM Wheels - 20050104 MIM Ruote Alloy Wheels S

I wonder if they make the wheels and sell them under different names?

"RUOTE" just means "wheels" in Italian.

Probably not a brand name.

Hi,

My comment: we know really well these wheels here in Europe and we DON'T recommand to buy it because of the poor quality and breakages. Better to use the Euromeister ;-)
