Can you ID these aftermarket wheels?

I've been after some new wheels for the Charger and recently stumbled upon these pictures of the Kwik-lift '69 Charger. These wheels are gorgeous! The only problem is I can't find who makes them! I've been considering the cheap SSR Star wheels in 15x8 and 15x10 sizes, but if I can find these wheels I might consider them despite the likely expensive price.

I don't know the wheel brand but I do see that the front sway bar is mounted upside down.  :scratchchin:

I don't know it either but those don't look like 15".
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Is it possible that it is a 2003-2004 ford mustang 17" or 18" wheel polished with blacked edges.
There used to be a Saleen clone here in town with wheels real close to those pictured.
My first Charger was a Stock Car.

Ford and Mopar wheel bolt pattern are the same 5 on 4.5 so it's possible.
The ones in the picture look like 16" or 17".

I figured the wheels on that particular Charger weren't 15s, but was hoping they would be available in 15s. Thanks for finding the wheels, but at $365 for a single 15x10 with 5.5" backspacing, I think I'd be much better off with the SSR's for $103 each at Jegs!

Damn I am so tempted! If those 15x8s were in 4.5" backspacing I'd be all over them, but with 5.5" I'd need probably a 1" spacer in the front. I'm gonna have to take some measurements and think about this...

They come in 15s of all widths. Lightweight skinnies.
