What wire wheels are these on this 82 GS1100e?

[batterup]

I found some pictures of a 1982 gs1100e with wire wheels, anyone have any idea what bike these might have came off of? Anyone have a set of these?
On the site of the close up of the wheel it looks like it says "Japan MT300"
but i cant tell exactly. Im hoping to get these for my 82 gs1100e.. They look like more of an anodized or aluminum, not a chrome..

Given that the bike is using the standard GS disks, I'm almost sure the wheel hubs come from a 1st gen GS 750.
The rims have been changed.
MT 300 says it's a 3 inch wide rim.
Here's what the original front looked like with the 19 inch rim.
The disks are from a GS 1000 ST.

So its stock gs hubs in an aftermarket wheel?

[John Kat]

Yes, stock GS 750 hubs with aftermarket rims.
Look at one of El Gablo's threads, he fitted these wheels to one of his Kat's.

In a weird sort of way the spokies look kind of trick on the E

I think they look VERY trick.....I may need to look into this myself. Of course, spokes also look fantastic on a Kat so maybe I'll need two sets.....

Can anyone point me to the thread El Gablo's has on these wheels? Thanks
