Hell-o. Found these rims under my parents house (!?!?), I actually put them there ten years ago and kinda forgot their existence. I've been scratching my brain sells out trying to identify them but no luck yet. Even internet is pretty empty on these. I remember I had them spinning under my 62 belvedere back in the days but they were too wide or something and I brutally abandoned them like my hand flips out a cigarette butt in a rainy day. I've figured out that they are made by Ryesa and they are made in mexico but everything else is missing. When, how, why. All the information is wellcome. BTW have you seen the youtube serie called will it run by Cold war motors, its great. Those ******* canadian stoners rule.

LOL, Cold war motors! I actually ended up with the white 62 Savoy 4 door they got running. It ended up being a parts car for a two door I sold. As for the rims, are they Appliance?
 
They held-up better than Cragars, due to being all steel. The plating lasted forever....with reasonable care.
 
Dang, that was fast. But it says ryesa on them, so what does that mean? And made in mexico. I wonder what year they could be. But anyway I need money to buy a new welding machine so if you would polish them and put a price tag on them what would be the number on the tag?
 
In the very same thread i ripped those pictures from.. The guy said he saw a van/car one of the two flip over several times and the centers of the wheels stayed on the car. The rim and tire broke free from the centers.. He stated they were cheap knock offs of cragers. That post is in this thread.. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/appliance-wheels.279782/
 
I had heard of the centers breaking out on them years ago also!
