Those are the limited edition BBS 14" wheels that came on the 83 Rx7's. Those are pretty nice ones! Carl

Talking

Hey Mario & Carl again thanks for the help. Those initials were killing me so last night I did a search and finally found what they mean. Here it is if anyone else is interested in knowing.

What factory certification does Enkei adhere to?
International Organization for Standardization (North American standards)
ISO9000
ISO/TS16949
ISO9001
Safety Standards:
JWL-Japan Light Alloy Wheel (JWL) Standard for Passenger Cars. The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport requires that aluminum wheels for passenger cars bearing certain plated numbers sold in Japan bear the JWL mark. The JWL mark can be displayed on wheels that have passed the standard through a self-certification system.
