fb rim, what are these?

i picked up this parts car awhile back that had these rims on and i've been cleaning them up to throw on my daily driver. just finished painting them today, now just a little polishing and filing down some small curb rashes and they should be good to go. i was just curious if these were a stock rim, they are the same size, or an aftermarket. there is a capitol VIA in them but not much else.

'83 SE wheels if memory serves. I'd ask in the 1st Gen forum.

Those aren't stock... They look like old skool SSR mesh... I used to have a set identical to those on my old RX-5 race car... I got one question though... Why would you paint them when you're in Idaho, and Scott Nagler is right around the corner from you? Here ya go... www.realcoatings.com

haha yeah i actually know who that is. i'm in a little money pinch right now so its a little cheaper for me to do it. hes actually doing some work for free right now all you have to do is pay for sand blasting. i guess he is testing out some new coatings but the only thing is that he only does a certain color every month and only a couple people. this month is red and i didn't think that would quite do it. he might even do some work for other people, you might just have to mail some stuff.
