If not, they are being reproduced by ESM with added safety bead I think.
More expensive, but may be better than what you can find on the scrappy (if you find any that is!).

also the esm wheels wont be a rusty, as even after sandblasting etc old van rims can still look weathered.... and then also alot off van rims are buckled, after all they was on working vehicles .
