What Rims are These
 
Hey guys i was just wondering what these rims are? All I know about them are that they are american racing rims, They fit on a 85-92 Camaro and that they are 15 inch in diameter. That is it.

Pretty sure what you have there are American Racing center caps, put on Western wheels.
Western made a "Turbine" wheel, either 30 spoke, or 15 spoke (which you just happen to have).
American Racing made a "Vector" wheel, but it had only 10 spokes, and the center hub was raised. The A.R. Vectors also happen to be almost identical to the wheels that GM put on the 1986-87 Buick "T-Type"

Oh I see what you mean. Thanks a lot for the info. Also just another quick question to all out there; there is some oxidation on those rims and i was just wondering what would be the best way to polish them up to get rid of the oxidation and clean them. Thanks a lot again

I've found that a 11000 RPM Makita 4" disc grinder with a buffing wheel and red polishing compound works great for polishing metal.
