Identify these Wheels please? [+Rep for anyone who helps]

They are 17' rims, on the side it clearly says JWL and VIA, which after google-ing, are the testing standards. They are missing center caps, which make it even harder to know. Any questions just ask.

Here's the pics.
JWL Logo on Side


VIA Logo on the Side


Full Rim



Any help deserves a +Rep.

Re: Identify these Wheels please? [+Rep for anyone who helps]

hmm... I don't recognize it.

There are a lot of cheap rims with random designs that you'll have trouble identifying, its the high quality name brand ones that are easily recognizable.

Re: Identify these Wheels please? [+Rep for anyone who helps]

well usually the rims are identifiable by the center cap, and since this had none theres no real way to tell. Even if they are cheap, the guy I bought them from said his son has had them for over 5 years (so they're lasting) and I only spent 150 on them. Good deal huh? It was an older gentleman, so I'm guessing he didn't know the value on them, he had them on his civic and he didn't like the sportyness.

Re: Identify these Wheels please? [+Rep for anyone who helps]

^thats a good point, please, in the future try not to create unnecessary threads. This could have been placed in one of your previous rim related threads.

Re: Identify these Wheels please? [+Rep for anyone who helps]

It's not dead, there are an average of 1500 people online at a time and 50-100 new threads per day.

The purpose of a forum is to help people, which we want to do, but multiple threads on the same subject gets quite annoying. I'm telling you this, so it's not an issue of getting my panties out a bunch, in the future please trying not to create threads on the same subject within days of each other. Thanks.

Re: Identify these Wheels please? [+Rep for anyone who helps]

and just to mention, but our fella mindbomber is one of the most patient moderators around here, together with xriceboyx and gearbox and TBOHAR There, Tom, happy? . If he agrees with me on that, it means it is going overboard.
And no, it seems dead for you because you don't look at the other's posts, nor contribute so far.

Re: Identify these Wheels please? [+Rep for anyone who helps]

Hmm, yes.. he is one of the more patient moderators All you can really do is search rim stores and see if anything comes up. If they are five years old they are most likely continued. Putting it up on the forum was a good idea, you might be lucky and catch someone who has had a set and knows what they are.

Re: Identify these Wheels please? [+Rep for anyone who helps]

just go to a wheel shop and asks there... too many wheels around the world...
just lift the butt from the seat in front of the internet and do it. Honda is strong due to its pioneers fabricating their own stuff, as well as some others.

you will end up soon in -rep that way.

All the regulars on this forum do their best to be extremely friendly to everyone and we're all quite proud of that, it's what differentiates us from most other car forums where people may be knowledgeable, but are otherwise far from friendly.

Of course, we all have bad days now and then and aren't the friendliest on those days, but overall I don't know of a any members who are consistently *******s.

Re: Identify these Wheels please? [+Rep for anyone who helps]

i will have to say this:

1) delete this [+Rep for anyone who helps] portion from the thread title. It's really disrespectful to even place this in the title. We are not here to jump for any opportunity to get reps. As said in the sig, give rep if you are hooked with good advice, but do not take it in the wrong meaning.
Heck, it's there not for me, actually. It's for the others that I rep from time to time because i see that their reps are not improving even when they give really good advice!!!

2) this is what? 4 or more threads you started asking for wheels or tires? (not including the one for selling the stock ones - that's OK)

3) We were very respectful and supplied tons of info previously.

4) this is the second time you gave a somewhat "shrugging" asnwer, to people that actually were trying to help and have been helpful before to you? Well, i said before that flaming would follow suit IF WARRANTED. which unfortunately happened.

So, no, we are not being a$$es. afraid someone have been, unfortunately, and it's not us.
you brought this on yourself. period.
