I might be wrong...but I think they are RUF wheels. IIRC that was in the ad from Chicago motor cars too.

Ok, I didn't see that mentioned in the ad: thanks for spotting. I also was unaware the Ruf made a 1-pc wheel version of their 3pc.

They kind of look like Compomotive.

I think the ad is wrong.

Take a look at the differences between those wheels and ruf. Ruf are almost completely flat faced, not dished around the lugs as well as the other obvious differences like the very squared off nature of the spokes.
