Others have correctly identified them as Hall Pantera wheels. These
center are actually intended for 15-inch wheels, and have been fitted to 17-inch
hoops.
They are no better or worse than any of the other Hall Pantera wheels which
are legendary for failing. They were a very sincere, honest attempt at
making a good-looking, cheap wheel, but Hall was let down by his supplier, who
failed to engineer the wheels properly for any sort of longevity.
I would view them as scrap today. :<(
