Hard to tell, could be BBS or HRE or Vector; they all look fairly similar to me. Actually Billy's right as I have just seen the Swiss Cross in the centre cap.

HRE P40's

One of the best alloys to replace the original ones

Those wheels look superb, although I think they would be better suited to a silver or daytona car. What sort of price are those rims?

Yeaoch indeed, I think VMR do a replica that is much cheaper, but not sure if they have the correct fitment.

I know HRE are custom made to whatever size you want.

The HRE P40 are around £4500 a set for a 9"x20". I have supplied a small number of sets of the HRE wheels for some racing applications.

The HRE offer a good lightweight custom produced forged wheel. Most quality forged wheels are around the £1000 ea mark.

I guess the copies, VMR Rota etc will be a cast rim rather than forged.
