Default Recognize this wheel?

Does anyone recognize this wheel? The closest I have seen is the Privat Funf and Ray's Lexion 303. Also, what are thoughts of this on a Spectra Blue GS? - Thinking staggered 19's

Luftbahn Monoblocks. I think they'd look just as good (if not better) on a SMB GS.

You should also look into the Work Euroline N2 if you're looking for the same design with a lip:

Br1an,

You're right, they are the Luftbahn's. I even have the original magazine where this pic is taken from (an old AFexe article about the Balsarini kit, from a few years back)...

TPA_STEVE,

You were looking for opinions, right? I'd have to say no on this wheel or similar looking wheels like the Works, for any color GS. I don't like the design much.
