after a long search on internet which gave me no results I will place the question here.

Does anyone know the brand and type of wheels used on the C12 ??
or do you know an aftermarket similar type of these wheels ?

I think this is the answer..

Fikse‘s new Profil Forged Modular line represents the leading edge of wheel design and technology. This new line features a wide range of new features and improvements, and is available in 17", 18" and 19" applications

Fikse, was the wheel that was used for the C12R as well (racing version). It is possible that the one on the C12 was modified. I remember there was some clearence problems with the prototype way back when. The wheel on the prototype could not clear the caliper and was only used for still photos..as always I may not know what the heck I saying but....I count 4 different wheel combos on the C12..I am guessing that they were all Fikse.
 
Of the three types of "Street" wheels I have seen on C12's, two of the versions were made by AZEV w/ the other (as seen on the original 2 cars) being made possibly "in-house" (??)

(the wheels in the pic w/ the Blue car were AZEV's too I believe - but of a ever - -so - slightly different style... )

Here is a pic of the AZEV's as seen on most: www.azev.com Hope this helps :m
