Those are called "Polycast" wheels.

Steel, with some sort of foam rubber stuff on the outside, and plastic center caps.

IMO they're crap.

If you want them black just paint em.

Only good thing the polycast wheels are good for is resisting being cracked when hitting a curb accidentally. My 86 Capri had them from the factory. I put 16" turbocoupe "snowflake" wheels on it and it made a MASSIVE difference. Cost me a whopping 100 bucks for the wheels. The tires were free!

Those are Ford standard wheels for 85-91 LX Mustangs 4cin-V6 Mustangs and LX 5.0V8 LX Mustangs. and LTDs LX V8 models.
