I think there's a name imprinted on one of the fatter spokes.

I don't recommend spacers because it widens the center of gravity of the front and it throws off your handling.

those two wheels have about i believe a 10mm or bigger offset difference. the rear is tucked and the front is almost about to hit the fender. I loved how it handled. very predictable

I had to install spacers on a 2003 BMW X5 4.6iS. The rims were 21" stock BMW rims meant for a 750iL/760iL or a 650i. Problem was, the rims bowed inwards from the top of the spokes to the middle of the wheel, making them fit those chassis perfectly. On the X5 with the Brembo big brake kit, it made them stick out 2" past the front fenders. The guy's X5 handled horribly and the stock 20" rims were put back in place.

The wheels shown in the picture are SSR Mark III's. I have not seen any large than 14x7.5 alough there is a 14x9 version which is very hard to come across .
