Those are Niche Veronas. Says "Niche" right on them I agree... very attractive, with a simple design appeal.

Extremely affordable wheels, too.

Thanks! How is the quality with Niche wheels?
I'm on my phone and picture was blurry when I zoomed in.

For the price they're one of the better options, they will be heavy since they're a cell cast wheel but haven't heard of any issues as far as quality.
The only problem that I'm aware of is the finish on the two tone (machined & black combo) didn't hold up well. That was one example, they may have that corrected, and AFAIK it's only one wheel in their line (the Enyo model) that has that finish.

The Niche website also does a great job showing different concavity between wheel widths and has good spec/fitment data for each wheel. I wish every wheel company would do the same.
