Nvm guys just used the search and found my answer. Stupid Me IMO they should have just kept the wheel the way they were. So much nicer

The older ones are also Enkeis if you go by the brochure. But they are stamped with instead on Enkei.

Enkei usually stamps or casts their name into the back side of the wheel, where it normally isn't visible. So, even if the Enkei center caps are replaced with OEM center caps, you can often verify the actual manufacturer of the wheel.

Last I recall Enkei has been doing Mitsu's wheels for a while; maybe branding patterns changed but still an Enkei.
