They are a knock off version of the Halibrand wheels of the 1960s.

I have heard them referred to as "kidney bean". Definitely inspired by the Halibrand real magnesium wheels of old.

All the ones I have looked at that were being sold in the past did not have the light argent color and did not have the oval holes polished. But have seen them on cars. Thus me shooting a picture of the ones at the BJ Truck to ask here.
They would be nice in 16x8 rears on an older Mopar with 16x7 fronts or 17" so bigger brakes could be used. Or since limited 15" tires are offered now

I saw them on a Dart Swinger and they look good. But were 15 or 16's. Not whatever 22-24" those are on the truck that has rubber band tires

No center cap on the op's image like the American Racing and the op's image shows chrome around the oval slots ??? Think I may have seen Cragar or another manufacture with that wheel?

the magic you preform on polishing aluminum, it should be a piece of cake for you to polish the slots.
