Definitely not magnesium originals.
I'm guessing the first batch of Flat-4's that had the smaller center caps.
I get the impression the seller is trying to decieve potential buyers as the center caps have been removed and are not pictured.
They would have said "Flat-4 Tokyo" and disspelled any myth about being Original EMPI.

For Sure Not Real Empi BRM's or even Flat 4's   Markings on backs of wheels are M.W.S. Wheels, M- UK, 5.5x15  Real Empi Brms were only 5 inches wide. I would Say These are the BRM's made in England..

The Seller Cut the Price in half to  $1000.00  and now the add says sale Pending  Some Poor Sole Got Nailed for A $1000.00 Dollar Boat Anchor I think one wheel weights more then a whole set of flat 4's   He Needed to Cut the Price in half one more time to $500.00  Grin Grin Grin
