Does Anyone Know What Kind of Wheels These Are??

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpOeu...ure=plpp_video I have been searching and searching, and i think i have ruled out any american racing wheels. My best guess is they are a u.s. mag wheel. but if anyone knows or has a guess go ahead and post. The car I am referring to is the grey camaro at about the 2:10 to 2:16 time frame. Thanks yall!

Not a problem man glad I could help. It was bugging me when I watched the video because I knew I had seen his car on here before but could not remember his user name. But after I searched for a bit in my subscribed list I found him.
