Bud - These look like the "Cosmic" brand wheels I sold back in the '70s when I worked at a BAP/Geon parts store. There were 2 styles - the ones you have and a multi spoke design, Both styles were not available for all applications. Spridget wheels were only in the style you have.
Not so... I have a set of Cosmic magnesium wheels that are different (earlier than the spoked wheels) and so does Guy Weller of this list. I have never seen any over here like Guy's. The wheels in Bud's photo remind me of the stock alloy wheels on a Jensen Healey. They might have been manufactured by Cosmic just for that car.
