I have five 5x205 sprintstars wheels. Two 5,5" wheels and three 4,5".

On the 5,5" wheels it say - Made in west Germany, Lemmerz, Empi
On the 4,5 " wheels it say - made in west Germany, Lemmerz but not Empi.

Why ? Was the 5,5" wheels sold by Empi and not the 4,5"

Best regards Henrik Hagen

I have owned several sets of Lemmerz Sprintstars over the years, mostly 4.5" and one pair of 5.5".  Since I live in Canada, these sets have all been stamped EMPI, as well as Lemmerz.

However, I believe that they were also sold in some countries (in Europe perhaps), whereby they were not marketed on behalf of EMPI...this site says the same thing (click on the left menu under Sprintstar 4-lug):

You could also try checking out the "Sprintstar Registry", as they have lots of information:
