I don't think they look like any of them mentioned.

IIRC, off of the top of my head, they sort of looked like a BBS version of... uhh.... well, fuck.. I don't know.

The 17" are Arietas. They came on the mk4 as well. They are nearly the same as the R32 Aristo. Slightly different, but appear damn near the same...

Close, but the part #'s are totally different and the Mk4 say Arietas, and the MkVs say BBS

Odd that the mkv wheel says BBS. The Aristo was made by OZ and I figured the Arieta was as well...

They're sort of like a mesh wheel, sort of.. thicker spokes that branch off like (can't think of an example right now that's similar) .............

I agree with you, but the Box says BBS on em, and the spokes remind me of an OZ wheel.

Do they have anything in the castings on the back? I'm a little curious now. lol

My Mazdaspeed has Racing Hart wheels on it and they say Enkei and Racing Hart on the back in the casting.
