My brother in law has found these wheels in a family member’s shed. We don’t know what they are from, they are 16 inch, 5 stud, he has a set of 4.

Does anyone recognise the design?

Thanks!

If it's hewn from granite the probably a Viking limited edition :-).

Never seen one of those before. Are there absolutely no i/d markings on it?

Looks like a Scimitar Se5 wheel. It's not though. I'm assuming these are 1970's.

Its a Dunlop D4, fitted to everything from MG’s to Scimitar, 5 stud would be a Rover/ Jaguar type fit I think though?

All he had to do was turn it over! What a nugget. Here’s the rear of the rim, Volvo 282...?

I think Bristol also offered the dunlop wheels/tyres (runflats??) , which would give a very exotic answer...
