Default Identify Wheels?

Hey all
I came across this Battle Aero 350z and wanted to know what set of wheels those are.
If anyone can identify them for me i'd be very thankful, please and thank you.

Not to second guess here but they might also be MST Suzukas...

FYI, these come in aggressive 9"/11" fit.

Just speculating and no offense to the owner of that car if one is prone to such offense. Just never seen yeller RPF1s (but maybe painted/coated?)

Well dang... Those look almost identical and cost like $175 less and come in cool gold colors... I bet they are more than 20lbs though... And might be more for stretch tires then racecar abuse.


Hmmmm thats why mine says Smith and Wesson and yours says replica....

Those very well may be the ones in the picture. But if you're going for that look.. Please get real rpf1's.
It's not like rpf1's are expensive

Only think they are super cheap if your a high roller with a set of forged wheels for every day of the week.

It's kind of funny if you think about what an rpf1 is.. It's considered "real" but the name rpf1 stands for replica F1 aka replica of an old f1 wheel.
And no they aren't super cheap but they are cheap in comparison to many real wheel companies and they are cheap for being flow formed. From a safety standpoint I probably wouldn't trust a low pressure cast rep of a wheel that is engineered to be flowformed. I have no clue how much engineering went into the replica version so they may be bulletproof but I personally wouldn't want to be the test dumby

I definitely miss it.. But I daily an 05 wrx now and I'm building a miata for drifting. But I'm waiting for ford to work out all of the kinks of the focus RS (first year will probably have some overseen issues) and then I'll be getting one of those.
I plan on getting a datsun 510 if one comes up in my area for a decent price. I've always loved 60's and 70's jdm cars

Trying to figure out what wheels I have on this car. Previous owner insists they're OEM from an 06 roadster but I'm not seeing anything about them on the wiki. I also know that there was never a chrome option from the factory but they could have been dealer chromed. Are these OEM for some other car? They're 18' by the way and I'm trying to figure out what I need to replace the lugs with, they look like OEM style lugs.

Definitely not Nissan OEM. I don't see any VIA/JWL stamping on them which makes me think they aren't OEM for any car. As far as your lugs go, take one off and see what they are...there are only so many types of lugs; more than likely, you have acorn style.
