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..

that's weird,i have been to peek performance (bought new IDAs from them when they frst came out) and they were great guys,a proper shop and very helpful. i would say they have their wires crossed,not intentionally trying to rip people off,just miss-informed...

I think the MWS BRM is made ian a lead alloy ;D. They are probably the heaviest 5.5" wheel on the market.

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  ;D ;D ;D
