Have a few wheels that my searches have come up short on identifying and hoping someone here may be able to help.
Only markings on the back are M.I.T. and the specs, 15x7 4x100 et35. Searching for anything Atlas wheel related only brings up an expired Ebay ad for a set of centre caps/waffles. Bolts go through and are threaded, but face is welded.
No idea what these are, buddy I bought them also had no clue and just wanted them gone. Only stampings on the back are "MADE IN
JAPAN" and the specs, 15x8, 4/5x114.3. True 3 piece.
Bought these on the assumption that they were an older Volk wheel, previous owner told me they originally had an extended threaded spline for centre caps but he had them shaved off. Only actual brand marking on the rear is a Bridgestone logo. Look really similar to TE37Xs, but those didn't have the centre cap spline.
Any help would be appreciated, and if anyone knows any tips on how to remove spray paint from the rest of my 'Atlas' caps I'd love to hear em.
Thanks in advance.

These were sold to me as Modulare D1 3 Piece wheels - I contacted Modulare and they aren't their wheels. Yet, they are real 3 piece wheels, not cheap.
Cannot tell what they are.
There are no marks anywhere on the wheels...I check everywhere
The only markings I found anywhere and I'm guessing these have to do with the barrel/lip company not the wheel manufacturer:

Hi everyone. I'm struggling to identify the wheels on my S15, they look a bit like either Enkei RS7 or Racing RS but slightly different. Does anyone know what they might be? The car is on the boat from Japan atm hence the low quality pics.

Anyone have an idea what these pups are? I thought they were Futuras at first but they have more of a Meister SR1 spoke shape. Less of a star and more of a five spoke ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Can anyone identify this 12 spoke three piece BBs that I have on my Viper ACR. They are 18 x 11 front and 19 x 15 rear. They are mag centers. Nobody has seen a 12 spoke BBs and I cannot find anything on the BBs website. They show as "custom" when we look them up by the serial number. I know of one other pair that was made for a matching ACR convertible and both cars were shown at SEMA in 2010.

I typed everything thinking Wearymicrobe asked the question.
To the OP, Wearymicrobe:
What is the part number on the faces?
I see 021XXXX
The number after 02 is the model name. Usually.
As far as Mg vs Al - I am fairly certain it is MG.
To test, pull the wheel off, put a drop of vinegar on bare metal(backpad or lug nut area). Aluminum will not react in any visible way. Magnesium will.

Getting a better look at the pictures, I agree, looks like magnesium, based on the indented text near the lug holes.
I thought these looked familiar... turns out I tried to buy a set about a year ago but could never get in contact with the seller:

If you search "BBS Viper" on Google images you'll see a lot of pictures of a car with them (incorrectly identified as BBS LM).
Best I can tell, they were originally made for the Viper Competition Coupe. I don't know if they were optional, maybe for a particular race series, or what. The 12 spoke centers are custom for a Viper. Here's a few examples:

And a couple older cars that seem to have acquired them. Like anything BBS sells, I'm sure you can buy a set if you throw them enough money.

Got a ton of info out of someone who was part of the project. The E16 is what put me on the right track.
E16 magnesium faces on custom barrels to clear the 17.3 inch front and rear rotors. The barrels were the most expensive part of the wheel by a LONG shot. It was made to look like the old one piece BBS "LM" wheels off the Gen II ACR as they were going to show it with an older factory car at some point. This last part I think is just bull, I think the guy who had the car built just like BBS wheels and liked the old style.
There were only two sets made though a few other people inquired but were turned back when they saw the price for the custom barrels to clear the brakes and for the larger 11/15 inch barrel widths. Like 3-4K a wheel just for the barrels.
They allegedly came into the shop with gold centers and silver lips but where completely disassembled and painted in the black to match a few other pieces on the car. I wish they were still gold centers but I can fix that. I was told 21,000 all in with tires and the repaint and shipping to get each set done which is why nobody else ponied up for other sets. They moved to the new 10 spoke style and things just kind of got lost in the shuffle.
This is the old style.
