They seem to be Rial DC's, mostly fitted to Mercs but not much info about.

Don't look like those merc wheels to me. No second outline on the spokes and too many as well? :undecided:

Most definitely not. No second outline on spokes as mentioned, too many studs, no holes between studs and clearly 6 spoke not 5.


Try asking on wheel whores?

Found this:http://www.raeder-gutachten.de/gutachten/rial/alte-Gutachten/RIAL%20bis%201999/F_6515_437/musterbericht2.pdf

Which suggests they are from the Mid 80's
