They look like OZ Superturismo LM.

Google reverse image search leads me here, but I can't access it (blocked at work). Any useful info there?

I'd go with this  :happy2:

...Although the centre caps look like they say VMR on a vague zoom-in inspection, but I can't think of any VMR wheels in that thinner multi-spoke design that are similar..

SuperT's will certainly give you that same look to the naked eye anyway  :happy2:

With the permission of GTlite I want to take the opportunity of this thread to ask if anyone knows what brand are these wheels. Two of the pics show 10 spike type of wheel, the third one is a 9 spike type. Thanks fellas

Top ones look like MTM wheels and the bottom ones are VW Racing alloys I think

MTM have 9 spikes too like the third pic. However, the MTM spikes have a different design on the edge of these. Thank you again.

Yes, it's a parking caliper (very expensive to get) and a 4 pot caliper for braking.
