Not sure. They came with the car

. Is there some way for me to tell? I'm assuming there's no markings indicating manufacturer or model.

Per your request - see attached. Note the image is a 3.1MB so download at your own risk

. It's 3504x2336. If anyone can identify these, let me know ... Oh, and the tire size is 165/60R12.

The look like Minilites to me... (BTW, however balanced the wheels put the sticky weights on the wrong side of the wheel. they're supposed to be on the inside.

LOL she leaked all her oil out in that picture. The oil pressure gauge line broke so my dad and I had to put a new hose on it. She usually doesn't leak at all though.
