Mid ID help

[Synergy]

I’m pretty sure this is a standard Optima Mid but the wheels have me thrown a bit, they’re actually alloy, I think they’re just aftermarket.

Any information appreciated

The wheels are aftermarket Pargu wheels (Korean guy). Does the bottom of the chassis plate have countersunk holes? If yes, it's most likely a Turbo Optima Mid SE. If the screw heads are protruding, it's an earlier flavor.

Nice example!

Thank you, that’s interesting, I wasn’t sure how long Pargu had been making wheels, I’ve had this optima with these wheels for 8-10 years.

Not countersunk, so earlier than a TOMSE, so that along with the alloy shock towers makes me draw the conclusion that it’s a standard mid.

I bought these wheels from him back in May 2013, and he had a very big selection on his website back then. Now his website is a practically non-functional mess...but that was about 8 years ago at least.

Thank you, that’s great information
