These are the alloys in question..

The name on the badge is either SENECA, SENEICA or SENEKA but the font is a little hard to read lol...

Any help would be great!

cheers!

Kosei made a wheel called "Seneca" that looked a lot like yours. Their later Seneka is much uglier.

I was thinking the same thing. Search for Kosei

if it says seneka, i'm thinking kosei as well.

might want to just pop off a wheel and look at the stamps on the back of the wheel.

Those are budget wheels from Demon Tweaks or South Coast Wheels I think,DONT kerb them!

Allow me to provide the correct answer............THOSE WHEELS ARE KOSEI S5R WHEELS. They were available in 17x8 and 17x9 et+20 back in the late 1990s.......I sold many sets back then including applications for the E36 in a staggered 17x8 et38 and 17x9 et45. The E36 didn't have many 9" wide rear offerings back then, so the Kosei wheel was in high demand. I hope this helps.

I know this might be a cheeky question.. but how much would they be worth then?

They all have slight kerb marks from the previous owner (who didnt have any respect for any part of the car, let alone the wheels lol)

Besides thatthey are in good condition :)

Market Value would be ZILCH......then again, everything has a price. It all depends on what someone would offer you for them. The irony of it all is that Kosei was selling them for $50.00 a wheel brand new when they were initially discontinued. Figuring each wheel will require $75- $100 to refinish, I think you'd be better off just using them as spares or track rims.
