I just picked these up real cheap but there is no center caps and i'd like to get them but i don't know who made them or the name of them if you know that'd be great? Thanks.

Not sure good buddy. Not too shabby of a wheel. Glad to hear you got a good deal on them- it's good to save some coin when you can.

Lets keep this on topic...

Just measure the hub ring. Then you can pick what center caps you like.

To me, they look like something that should be on a honda.

But anyway, I have no clue, but I do know somewhere you can find out. The Car Lounge

I have a set of HSR Racing wheels and one got cracked so i went on CL and found em i have new tires on the HSR's but wont fit with the new rims and i'd sell em but they are damaged but from people who see the crack its repairable. $300 for them with new tires. I uploaded pic of what they look like.

Do you mind taking a picture of the wheel with the crack or scratch? And also, do the wheels show wear? I will get back to you later on the wheels after I talk to my father and see. Please wait a few days for me to respond because he is currently out of town. Thanks.

Can you try that? There should be at least a manufacturer stamped inside there somewhere.

I saw a set today that looked a lot like the pic you posted. The centercap had a Z on it. Doubt this will help much, but thats all I got.

Exclamation HSR Wheels

Hi, after seeing another beetle with older hubcaps and trim rings on steelies, I decided to maybe give that a shot. Since I have steelies already and it is a cheaper mod compared to $300 + shipping + others, I probably won't buy the HSR Wheels. Hopefully someone else will be interested in them.

Ok thanks and if you see them again could you take a pic and ask who ever they belong to what they are if it's not to much to ask? Thank You
