    Default Name these wheels.

    Hey everyone.

    I've been asked to trade my VY ss 18's with these.. but i have no idea what they are.

    Just so you all know, they'll be going on my VH. Opinions?

    theres probably a brand cast into the back side of the wheel, but there were many mesh style wheels made over the years, so it could be anyones


    they look to be in great condition, snap them up as soon as you can

    They look very similar to the ROH hotwires that I have on my VH. They are also very similar if not identical to Vh SS rims. I would keep them on your Vh.

    If they have ROH stamped on the back then they are Hotwires. Hq era I believe.

    similar to original SS, but not the same
    Original SS wheels were Cheviots. They were only 14 inch and didn't have as much offset

    I've been googling hotwires and none of these are the same.

    All the hotwires i've found have a 'ring' around the stud holes ( Center ) These don't.

    Looks like they just copy exhisting rim designs and flog them off alot cheaper.

    Goodluck finding any info on them.

    You seem to be spot on, yet the only ones that look exactly like these seems to be 4stud.
