I recall the owner saying they were either ARE or Prime... One of the 2. It has been years.

Like I stated earlier, it has been a few years, but the owners name was Graham Lombardo, maybe he still owns it, maybe not. It was for sale not too long ago. Try a search with his name.

Those look like Boyd Coddington "Tuned" wheels

Here's CarNDrvr's car with them:

They look slightly different though, and I think they're discontinued.

Can't seem to find "ARE" wheels online...

I checked out Prime wheels, and didn't see them.. but the center caps look very similar..

Perhaps they are a discontinued style?
