the full name of the ones on the red car will be compomotive TH1780, as in, TH design, 17in diameter, 8.0 in wide. theyre the same wheel model as dans, but different size / offset.

compomotive make each wheel in a range of blank castings to suit a range of offsets, then machine them to whatever pcd / offset you want.

look at MOs, a classic 5 spoke, but the design itself varies with width and offset, a 7.5 x 17 et30 has surved skopes that go into a flat centre, an 8x17 et 10 has flat spokes and a deep recessed centre, but both are still called MOs
cheers,

harry
