      I really like your center cap setup too.


      They absolutely are American racing. They are just a higher grade that's made abroad. All multipiece wheels may by American racing were labeled ARE along with some other higher end models.

      I used to own a fox body mustang and this was a very popular wheel for that application.

          If these are A.R.E. wheels then they are not 3 piece. Unfortunately the lips were welded to the barrels from the factory making them not real three piece wheels.

            Well mine are 3 piece as the lips were changed for larger ones from the PO and I took them apart to have them refinished and polished.


            My 1989 e30 s52 Touring... this is Betty

            My 1989 325i vert (sold)...this is Nina

            My 1991 M5 (sold)... this is Veronica

              I was not talking about your wheels. You don't have the same wheels. There are some pretty clear differences from your wheels to the OP wheels.

                  If the barrels were welded together than why would they be sealed with silicone? Either way this is a nice set of wheels with great potential regardless of orgin. This is after all a for sale thread.
