They are a wheel made for various types of racing and have been made by many manufacturers. Wolfrace have had a go, so have Enkei and a load of other companies. Was never a standard fit on any production car AFAIK.

Deffo slot mag.

Wolfrace are the best known maker of them, dunno if they were the first.

Also pretty sure they were OE equipment on some Reliant Scimitars, and were mega popular alloy all round the world as a modification in the 70s, hell, Starsky and Hutch has them on their Torino...

I guess he thought he could retire off what these wheels might be worth.

VW Fitment ones in good condition can be worth a bit I think. Got offered £200 for my set a couple of years ago at a show, but apparently they're an early set or something? Stamped "Woolferace" on the inside and they've got a channel on the outside of the rim with the slot-mag design in the middle
