These aren't my exact rims, but these are exactly the same except with gold centres as opposed to mine having silver centres.

They are a Japanese made rim, as made obvious by the JIL stamp and the "Made in Japan" on the back.

And in case you're wondering if the original place I found those images has any leads, it was from a for sale ad in the US. And their description was: JDM DEEP DISH MESH, USED WHEELS FROM THE 80s.( SSR VOLK RIKEN ENKEI BBS ).... Very helpful.

I'm planning on selling my set, so I thought it would help a prospective buyer to maybe know what exactly they are.

And leads would be great, thanks :2thumbs:

:lol: Well I guess that would have been the obviously conclusion from the centre caps, I didn't think that Potenza had anything to do with making rims but apparently not so. I just figured that they were after market caps.

Looks like I searched in the wrong forum though, oh and they are the same color as the ones on that other thread.

Thanks for the help (y)

I have also seen "Potenza" shocks for AE86 - guessing these were made for Bridgestone by a wheel company and branded as Potenza (similar to Advan/AVS wheels by Yokohama)
