I went over to "Wheel Find" but there are so many entries I couldn't nail anything down.
It looks like a Japanese symbol from caligraphy, if that's a help. Perhaps places like Renegade Wheels who dabble in lots of custom jobs might give you a lead.

Cool wheel, these days with all the "Orange County" type shops around that could be someones "custom". One off, I've seen so many of the desigher wheels that I couldn't tell you if I even saw 2 of the same. Good luck with finding it, I'd like to know how you get it tracked down if you ever do.

Somebody built it, and his work is out there. The nice thing about a forum is that channeling into the www means there's a client out there somewhere who knows the fabrication shop personally.

Some of those wheels are 1-offs, and they don't want just anybody getting their hands on them. If the OP has more than a pic of it, meaning he can actually look at it there is probably a manufacture's mark of some kind on it.

No info on it yet. I bought an '01 softail deuce that the wheel is on. It still has the stock rear wheel, which I'm trying to replace soon. I'm curious if I got the tire taken off the wheel if there may be a logo or name on the inside of the wheel. Anyone noticed info on the iside of aftermarket wheels they have?

I've seen logos and info on the hubs and axle housings but never inside the wheel.
