^ That.
Early Q45's came with a TON of different dealer-installed wheels. Pull one off and look at the back - the front means nothing.
They're clearly a cheap knockoff of the Q45t BBS wheels, though.

They are for sure OZ racing. Can't find a definate name. They are very strong and came in a few different lug patterns and offsets. They are 15x7 et35, it's stamped on the front near the lug holes and on the back. Same as a MSW 1956I. Pretty rare. Not a knock off. Very simular in style to the enkei 92's besides the center cap. They were used on q45's, jaguars, bmw's, and VW jetta also.

I'm not so sure.
Look under the cap, all OZ wheels have the name underneath.

That sticker isn't an OZ logo, either. All OZ wheels (to my knowledge) have either the MSW logo or the authentic OZ logo, which looks very different from that).
And no, they're not the same as the MSW 1956I.

This is an authentic OZ gold meshie:
Re: help id these wheels Q45 G50
90's era MSW Type 21 http://www.stanceworks./msw
90's era Fittipaldi-Mesh http://www.r3vlimited./mesh
Current MSW Type 21 http://www.lohen.co.uk./msw
OZ made some center caps with the Z centered inside the O. I do recall the Fitti mesh being slightly different in some way than the Type 21, but nowhere near as different as the 1956I. In these pics they look identical. Im trying to locate some old Tire Rack ads as I've been trying to id this split 10 spoke OZ wheel. http://forums.vwvortex.oz/
I really don't care much for aftermarket wheels anymore. They all seem to be 20's or bigger, overstyled, and unnecessarily heavy. If I had a M37 (soon to be Q70, AAUGH) I wouldn't want anything larger than 19's on it. I value ride quality and live in a very pot-holey city.
