To tell you the truth, I think they look like platic rims that have been spray painted silver...

I have these same rims. Came with the car when I purchased it a few years ago. The only pic I have is to large to attach but I have a gunmetal grey paint job and I think they look really good. Mine may be a different mfg. The center caps say Western maybe a generic knockoff. They look exactly the same. My wheels are also 15" with 235/60/15 tires. I know its a bit strange with the smaller rim but I like the old school look of the fat meats. At first I was thinking of dumping them for some original GTA rims I have now decided these give my car a distinctive look over most others out there. I will try to resize my picture to get it to post. My rims also are deeper in the back to give the perception of a larger rear wheel.
