Default Are these 'saw blade' wheels?

I believe I know what saw blade wheels look like so I'm wondering what these are called...

Any one know? (I've been bringing this '89 back to life for the last month and just put good tires on so I can finally 'light it up!)

These are called "cruisinarts" and are a nice wheel. The sawblades are the 91-96 wheels.

quezinarts, cruisenarts, salad shooters... Got it!

They looked like #@&$ when I got the car with stains and rash all over them. Was getting ready to go find some new wheels but decided to clean one up for the heck of it. Sanded and polished a wheel (400, 800, 1000, 1500, 2000 and then polish) and it came back nicely. Decided I really liked them and did the rest.

I've always called them 12 slot wheels.
