They are alloy wheels, and they are not very common.

Gafmo has a set on 'Morris' I believe.

Do they say "not for highway use" anywhere on them? or "for trailer only" as a trailer place here in Adelaide stocks mini stud pattern alloy wheels, in 10 x4 and 10 x 5, they look like that, but clearly have "for trailer only" embossed on the face, but possibly on the back.

If not, they look like late 60s early 70s Dunlop wheels.

These are Dunlops 10x5's note the Triangled cut out's which is the major differnace with Tasmans and Cosmic's (Cosmic's have the rectangled cut also but the Webbing is concaved)

What you have is the Tasmans..no they arn't Trailor wheels but still good wheels with a bit of a clean up. And if thats the price he Paid they are a bagin.
Do put them on the ground..Face or Back on straign floor and try and rock them...to see if the are warped

I'll have to finish polishing one and put a new pick up :lol:
