Identify these wheels?

I got these wheels when I bought my 91' Firebird, they came on the car, and i love the look, but I can't find any information on them. The center caps(not in photo) are American racings so i assume the wheels are as well, but i have never seen another set, except once on an ebay auction for a rolling chassis, the auction said nothing about the wheels...Can anyone give me some background on these?

Photo good enough? I can get a closer pic if needed...this is pretty much the response I always get, no ideas? I search around different comany's sites to find a set of the same wheels and come up short.

If you have any interest in parting with them at some point send me a message. I'd like to have another set as spares or winter tires, etc. I just love the look of these whhels. Thanks!

Check out the silver car in my vBGarage pics.

I also have no idea, the center caps don't have any name on them. I asked here and got no responses.

Re: Identify these wheels?

They are American Racing wheels. I just put a set exactly like that on my Camaro last fall. I don't know the exact model number of them though. The clearcoat was peeling on them but I stripped them with some aircraft stripper and they look pretty good now.
