Can anyone ID these 19 inch wheels?

These 19 inch (11 rears, 9 fronts) wheels came on a wide body I recently purchased and I have never seen them before. They are a 3 piece design and I believe were purchased around 2001 or so.



Does anyone have a clue as to the manufacturer on them?

Thanks in advance.

Rob

There are a bunch of wheel "companies" that were offering "custom wheels" over the past couple of decades. These actually look like they're two-piece wheels. A center bolted to a one piece barrel/lip. They would buy the necessary pieces and assemble them for the necessary application. through the years the centers changed as the manufacturers went through design changes and improvements (one hopes) but the lips/barrels were usually sourced from two or three main suppliers. These companies would usually last a year or two and would commonly go under and reopen under a different name. ADV1 is a perfect example. The one local (to me ) company that comes to mind is D2. Both having had several iterations over the past decade.
Are you looking for a replacement wheel?

Yes, absolutely. I need something that fits over big red brakes.

Any interest in these?

There has got to be at least a dozen "custom wheel" companies in LA. Look in the phone directoy and then see if they have a website. I just looked up D2 wheels and they have a wheel similar to yours.

Me, interested ..? Not a chance. 17" wheels clear Big Reds. I have 16" and 15" wheels that clear my 930 calipers. I'm all set for wheels, thank you
