Check on a 2.2T Mopar website, you may have found a very rare piece.

To be honest they look like Laser wheels with the cap added.
I'm curious though.

No, they have the carrol shelby logo made into the back of the wheel

I think those are just Shelby wheels sold as an aftermarket part, sort of like saying Weld wheels, American Racing wheels, or whatever. The application is what they fit, not really what the came from. Notice the center cap, "Carroll Shelby Wheels".

Shelby has pimped his name out for a lot of stuff over the years, hell he even has a Chili mix.

I'd agree they are an aftermarket piece. Not sure the application though, didn't see them listed anywhere either, maybe discontinued.

Going by the large looking bolt pattern, They could be from a european type of car. possibly a porsche. I would ask an auto-crosser. It might shed some light onto the subject for you. :awsome:
