As per what is on the side wall.
Nexen is a German tyre company
That one look like the older 8ply Rodian AT, which has a Bridgestone AT pattern, but at less cost. Designed for the SUV / Commercial van market.
They have been superceded by the Rodian AT Pro, which has cleats down the top half of the sidewall:- https://www.nexentire.com/international/product/ltr/roadian-at-pro-ra8.php
I've used NEXEN HT's in the past, though as a summer road tyre, rather than an offroader, when I used to put my Kumho KL71's on.
If you are only going to be doing occasional offroad, greenlane / forest tracks, then the Nexen AT is quite sufficient. _________________

I have the same embossed logo on my Toyota Surf wheels, but the same logo was also on my original Renault 19 alloys, so I suspect they are a proper, OEM item. Judging by the centre recess, they are designed to take the hub caps as often fitted to Mitsubishis and Toyotas. Nice. _________________ Andy C L300 Super Exceed - over 100 smiles per gallon! |

I have definitely seen these before but Can't remember where (no not in your need bigger arches post :-) ). Maybe one of the older Fuel or Mickey Thompson series? Any wording at the back? what is the diameter of center bore?
Looks like aftermarket rather than OEM wheel to me. JWL stands for Japan Light Alloy Wheel and this is JWL T Japan Light Alloy Wheel Truck and Bus, all alloy wheels, aftermarket or OEM, sold or manufactured in Japan must meet jwl standard before they can be sold for road use. This standard is also generally accepted worldwide so you can see the stamp on euro wheels too. |

Thanks for that info Dori Dorito, I assumed that as I had seen the JWL on OEM wheels, that it was a reputable manufacturer. Mine are the 'Option' wheels from the Surf, but look good on the L300. _________________ Andy C L300 Super Exceed - over 100 smiles per gallon! |

They are Bridgestone wheels for older land cruisers. I think they only come in 7x15 -10 size/offset but Can't confirm. One of those stamps could be date of manufacture.
Andyman was right, an oem wheel :D
They do come in different widths/offsets:- www.avito.ru

WoW nice link man.
There are wheels there I could never find any info on 20 years ago now I finally know what they are. Many classic forgotten models.
Thanks for that
So sl8ters wheels are called Bridgestone Zona RV-1 |

Glad it's useful - for a completely random find!
It's funny. I've never been "into" wheels that much (always just seen it as something tyres go on to) but some of those do get me excited...! Also, I suspect I never, ever, would be able to afford any of them even if I could find some... _________________ 1992 L300 Exceed "Selma" |
