And the purpose to finding a 5th wheel? And what do you mean rounded? All wheels are round... I think. You got me lost here on what you're asking. That looks be one of those ever so common in their day, white wagon wheel. I might add, in not to good of shape. You'd spend a fortune in valuable time on those for what wagon wheels are usually worth these days. So what's your intent with that wheel? Sandblast and powercoat, or sandblast and paint? What are they going on?

He's talking about the spokes not being rounded.

I sure am glad someone started a thread for identifying mystery wheels! Here is a picture of one of the wheels (of a set) I salvaged off a wrecked donor truck and put on mine. I have seen these on several other vehicles but do not know what they are. Any thoughts?

Those look like 90s era American racing wheels, maybe ultra brand.

Clean off the back side of one real well and look for a manufacturer's name. There at least 10-15 manufactures that made a wheel that style in the early 90's.

I need 1 more for a spare, when i referr to round(im refering to where the insert meets the ring, and the spokes) Im going to sandblast them and powdercoat. They actually clean up good, ive tried on a lil area on one.

Best thing to do is yank one off and see if there's any stampings on the back side of the wheel and possibly remove a tire to see if there are any stickers on the inside of the rim.
