Hey there!



I have some aftermarket wheels on my Mustang and need help indentify them.

I'm actually after the center caps and You'll see it's not easy! :(

If anyone ever dealt with this kind of wheel and has some solution how to get those center caps in an economy way, please share that with me.



Measurements of the center caps. (It's staggered so it's different)
These are ultra-light, aluminum wheels! Saleen style?



Front: 6-3/8" Diameter with 5/8"   Deep

Rear : 7-1/4" Diameter with 5/16" Deep



Any idea?!



Thanks in advance!

It appears to be an older style American Racing wheel that has been discontinued for several years,  look on the back side of the wheel, it may be marked on the back side of one of the spokes with an "ARE", in that case it is American Racing. Your best bet would be a junk yard, or visit your local tire shop. They usually have an assortment of old center caps laying around, you might get lucky.  Have you ever heard of the phrase "needle in a hay stack"?   Good luck!

Thanks for the help!
Well we'll see but You might be right with the hay stack issue! ;)
Anyways I gave it a try!
But to be honest I did check the back of the wheel and there was a strange sign like a "UN" or "UW" or something!



Any idea on this one?! THX again for all Your help, Guys!
