Can anyone ID this wheel?

I'm trying to ID some wheels from a couple of photos... Anyone recognise these? I'm sure I've seen them on an E30 but I can't remember a name/type. They are E30 fitment.

Are they not Kerchers?

It's close to some of their designs, but I don't think so... I haven't seen any of them with the hex type centre cap. They look a bit like brock b1 and compomotive MO as well, but I can still see differences.

Indeed you were Rav... your next challenge is to tell me how wide they are - I think the tyres are 225/45/17

They are different to the Kerscher Carmona's i had.

They look like 7.5j to me.

They look to have a bit of a stretch on them, so I would hazzard a guess at 9j 8)

Well, I picked these up today (they're 17x7.5 - hard luck Rav!).

It took me a while to track down the name of the company that made them. The manufacturer stamp behind the centre cap is "MAS" - I had to do quite a bit of googling/translating from German sites and forums to get the details. The company that made them is no longer in existence, but they were a German company called MÃaller Auto Sport.

I was certain they were not Kerscher Carmona's as the shape of the spoke is all different, plus mine were 16" and not seen a set in 17".

Look nice anyway :)
