Accord euro R wheels apparently, just that centre cap grommet but may have had a big cap option...
Nah, look where the spokes meet the hub... They almost form a point on your wheels and the spoke faces are quite rounded...

Image

Where as the Euro-R wheels have a much bigger gap between the spokes and the spokes are squarer faced...

Image

The biggest difference of all though bud... Count the number of spokes ;-)

Sorry buddy :lol:

DOH! I got all excited when I found them thinking I'd solved the mystery as the spoke profile is the same

What of those cars are manufactured in England? What is the offset of the wheel?

the offset is 45, i'll get google imaging a few of them tonight :)

They're around 1.5 kgs lighter than the DC2 supersprint wheel which makes me think they would be from a more performance orientated car. Also, they're all the same width so probably not a RWD performance car...

I'd say Team dynamics, the wheels I got off Phil have the same style for mounting the centre caps

I searched Team Dynamics earlier today, but couldn't find any that matched. Still recon they could be a contender though.

Yeah I found some team dynamics that are really colse to the mark but always not quite there :(

I think Nafe mentioned earlier that they could be an old model...
