What is this?

[Heigo]

does that centercap read "Lenso"?

if so fake wheels

No...



Whatare these.....

[Swinburn]

aaa did not realise the allesios came in 17s as well, I had spotted the different hardware on other wheels. Yer my mate got a spare from the same company that had that one but they don't seem to have much info on them. I gave the speedline linea corse name a Google earlier today and nothing came up on these wheels. I will see what I can dig up on the other name you gave me.
cheers for the help much appreciated

yer I spotted them but they have a different design (thinner spokes) and also 18s and not face mounted.

Allesio is face mounted. And they come in 17. But it is not the wheel in the picture.
Speedline has changed the hardware throughout the production runs. Some have E-torx heads, some have these.




What you have is often called Speedline 3.6 wheels, but I do not know the official name.
In this auction they are called Speedline Linea Corse, but many Speedline wheels have that name.

Alessio speedlines is what comes to mind

[Swinburn]

I got these from a mate and we have both searched all over and only ever found 1 other set of these wheels with not much said about them.
I have found the 18 inch versions made by speedline and kinesis and also a couple of 17inch ones bit not face mounted ones in this spec. The 18 inch versions are called speedline for Porsche and come with an etching in the dish saying that and the bolts are 6 point with a sl stamped in the top. these have been polished but I don't think had an etching and the bolts are 6 point but with the stamp.



These are factory face mounted and cant be put any other way due to the shape of the face(the dish just doesn't sit on right and the bolt holes are deep so the bolts sit flush). the specs are 17x7.5 et52 and rears 9 et58 I think.
they are stamped made in Italy which I am thinking would make them speedlines, but as I say I just cant find them in the same spec and face mounted.
I will get better pictures at some point today if needed.
any help is very very appreciated guy thanks Swinburn

WHAT!? THE TEXT TO SPEECH THINGIE ON MY GOOGLE DOESN'T GO LOUD ENOUGH

I CLICKED ON AN EMAIL AND IT SAID I INHERITED 40 MILLION DOLLARS FROM A PRINCE IN NIGERIA

OBAMA IS A MUSLIM COMMUNIST AND IF YOU DON'T FORWARD THIS E-MAIL TO EVERYONE ON YOUR FACEBOOKS HE WILL COME AND ABORT ALL YOUR CHRISTIAN BABIES

And that, ladies and gentleman, was my Sam's crazy aunt impression.

That tag reads GT-M to me, though it still pulls up bollocks in searches.

WHAT!? LET ME TURN UP MY HEARING AID!!



Man, I really fucked that up, didn't I?

[TheWonder]

Thats what I figured. Around 1k seems fair for the quality they are in. Thanks for all the help KyleAnderson!

Man, those are tough.

In the upper right of the label, it shows the model name as GT-H. I can't find a single reference anywhere.

The "normal" Sebring mesh is model GT-X, but the spoke shape is a bit different near the lugs.

Your wheels have a spoke shape closer to the Volk VRX10.

The build date of yours is a bit earlier than the other Sebring wheels I linked. My best guess is that it was either a model that was phased out quickly, replaced by the GT-X, or it was a special edition for a tuner. I believe the casting for your wheels is a slight modification of the GT-X (rather than all-new), with just some material added to make the V shape between the spokes. I've also noticed the size of your wheels is also a very common size for the GT-X.

With that information, you could try to reach out to Rays for an identification.

As far as price, I would value them about the same as any similar Sebring mesh. I found prices everywhere from $650 to $1500, depending on condition and list date. If I were selling them, I would list for $1000 with a little room to come down; prices on 17's are falling as newer cars take bigger wheels.
