RE: What are these wheels?



Thanks guys. 
I rather like them, and have never seen them on anything other than that
car. I'm trying to get info from a few other places now (supposed Centra
dealers).

I would agree with Kevin... those are Centra Type 7's if the information in

were mondo expensive in those days.....
