The rims are off an ultra burner mk2. My camera isn't the best but I have attached another pic of the rims.

Thanks for your help.

All The ones you listed have a Squared off side. Yours are rounded. There is a thread in here with photo's I can't paste it for some reason But go to search and type in Araya Rim ID go to the third page and open that thread it has photo's of all but the Aero's.
