If you tell me where to look I can see in mine. One thing I can say, they are very light.
 
Shud b info on the inner side of the wheel, ill have to check my spare coz its not dirty on that side like the set ive got.
I use em for winter wheels so i dont reck my Volks, easy to DIY paint aswell coz its a simple but smart design.
 
Maybe you'll not see the word enkei stamped on the inside of the wheel, you'll find a sign, thats similar to this:

:p
 
i am pretty sure they are enkei wheels. The only drawback is that they are very narrow.
15x5.5
 
i didnt think they were made by enkei, there heavy anyway at 6.2kg, i personally never liked the design when i had mine
 
they aint 5.5 inch wide though,they are 6 inch width,i have 4 sets of these in different colours for my ek4, one of the best 4 stud oem wheels imo
 
Did they come with 195, 55, R15 sized tyres on by the way as my car never had these on the previous owner sold them. Just curious as to what tyre they were fitted with from factory? ? ?
 
whats surprising about that?

enkei are an OEM wheel supplier, such as speedline etc. Stock evo 8 wheels are Enkei, used to be OZ, but theres no reason standard wheels on cheaper cars cant be made by them. at the end of the day, they simply produce ali to custom specs, it wont cost much to create a mould and if there's a production car that they need to produce alot of wheels for, its much easier for a car manufacturer to get an actual wheel manufacturer to run a load of wheels off for them.

just because theyre made by enkei doesnt make them any different to any other wheel. you'll find that alot of cars that have alloys in the uk and europe are produced by speedline, they're simply a bulk manufacturer.
