I need help identifying this wheel. It was left in the garage when i moved into my new house, and would like to know what car it came from - or was meant for. All i know is what stands on them (Delta Mics, KN, 1504.) and that they measure 7*15. I think the PCD could be 4*100, but it was a bit dark when i measured so they could be 4*98. They are split wheels, and the centre cap is missing...   Thanks in advance! |

KN are the manufacturer. I thought they were ATSs to start with - they made a very similar design of rim.

They were sold by the French company Delta Mics (kind of like a French version of Janspeed, Ripspeed or Demon Tweeks) who sold a range of replica/lookalikes of OEM and aftermarket wheels (Campagnolo 'Coffin Spokes', Slot Mags, Mambas, BRMs, Gordinis, RS 4-spokes, Mercedes, Alleycats, BBSes, Weller 8-spokes etc.).  In your case, they seem to be an 'interpretation' of the ATS 70515 wheel:   Nowadays Delta Mics have moved on to selling quad bikes of various shapes and sizes. They still have a small line in car tuning parts and accessories although they no longer sell wheels (their wheel spacers still seem pretty popular though). I don't think they manufactured many (if any) of the wheels themselves, they just rebadged wheels from other suppliers. Some seem to have come from UK manufacturers like 100+ and KN (as in your case). Here is a link on a French forum were someone was asking for an ID on some Delta Mics wheels that were rebadged 100+ Quasars. Whether KN ever sold these themselves or produced them specifically for Delta Mics I don't know. There was a posting on Wheel Whores last year asking for info about a 14x7 set of the same wheels as yours, but it got no replies:  |
