Default Help Identifying a Wheel

So a friend gave this wheel/tire combo de had no use for. It came as the spare on a rig he bought a while back and he's since tore apart for another build. The more I look at it, the more I like it and would like to buy a set for one of my rigs. I know the tire's a Pitbull Growler, but the wheel... can anyone ID it?

It's looks like aluminum, but powder coated (I think) grey.

Looks like a wheel you would find on Aliexpress or EBay. You can pick up a set for 30 or so bucks, I imagine

Classic 8 hole wheel

Thanks, I found these, which seem to be the same design, but with a black outer ring.: https://www.amazon.com/Hotstorm-Bead...s%2C53&sr=8-47

Have a look at these -

Look to be pretty close, if not identical.

Don't know about quality as I don't have any of these. Seller's pictures of them look pretty good though.

EDIT: and they also sell them individually, so I was able to get 5 to equip one of my 6x6 rigs

I did a search of my orders and they're not available at the moment on Amazon, it's probably been 3 years or so since I bought them, but glad you found them elsewhere.

Super

The quality of the AliExpress wheels is generally very good in my experience

They're different - they have 6 bolts on the rear face. The ones @nightcrawler48 linked to look to be closer, as they have the 4 bolt rear

Apparrently I have a set of these in black. Could very be the first aluminum wheel I bought. I have always liked the Pro Comp 8-Hole

Quality is good. Looks like I shelved them still dirty

I think the one JimInMiami has, the ones Smog posted pictures of, and the ones I found on ebay are all the same. If you look at the back, there are four (4) small half circles spaced between the four (4) clamping screws on all of them.

According to the info on the ebay listing these are AXSPEED brand (new brand to me). There are also different thickness hubs to get whatever spacing you want, available separately -

Thanks again. Those do look like the right design, but the finish is shiny, either polished or anodized. My wheel has a matt, textured finish.
