I bought a parts truck that came with these 15x10 5 lug wheels. It only came with 3 of them and I’m wanting to find a fourth. I’m having h*ll trying to find the exact model of wheels these are.

The only center cap they came with said Weld Racing. Posted on a weld wheel group and one of the admins says they are not welds. I can’t for the life of me find the exact model. Anyone care to help?

Wow.
Sweet wheels - will be worth the effort imo.
The outside lip looks rounded but the inside is more squared?

I vote Ultra.

Lemme help.

They look like knockoff Weld Typhoons. But being a multi lug pattern are definitely not Weld.
Unfortunately unless you have reason to believe they’re fairly new, they are most likely discontinued.

Thanks, I figured they were discontinued being that they’re older wheels. I just wanted to see if anyone knew the exact model so I could start looking around for the fourth wheel.

At this point, I’m not too sure whether I should hold on to them and search for the fourth or just let them go.

Do you want to use them because you really like them, or simply because you have them? If it's just because you have them, then let them go. But if you like them, find a match. I bet they will clean up really well.

Could also be Eagle Alloy or Progressive. Have you dismounted a tire from one yet?

Secondary pattern doesn't look original, looks like someone had them re-drilled in a different pattern. The larger 5 lug has relief cuts machined into the edge for socket clearance and are recessed a little deeper for more wheel stud engagement on the lug nut.

I suppose they could be centerline

I like them, but no special attachment to them. I haven’t dismounted a tire yet

I thought I found a centerline that was close but the more I look the more differences I see...

Yea I’ve found plenty of “look alikes” but they’re all just a little different. Makes me wonder how bad it would look with one slightly different wheel

I could be wrong but those look like Weld Roadhawks.

I have no idea what brand the wheels in the first post are they look like an “inexpensive” copy of the old Weld D7’s.

Flutes are on the wrong side of the windows though.

Or you could get 2 new look alike ones, and have them on one side, and have yours on the other. Bet no one would notice.

^^^ That's the ticket if you actually like the wheels. Then your third original wheel can be a "matching" spare.

My dad tells a joke about one of the guys he worked with drove a truck every day for two years before he noticed the stripe down one side was a different color than the other side... On his own dang truck.
