Actually looks like it's a normal wheel that has been crushed and torn at the rim (Presumably in the accident). Looks like the bottom half of the rim is completely gone, and the section at the very back has been compacted towards the axle.

some of the lads who work there may be allright, but as a company they tried to rip me off on more than one occasion, luck of the draw with whether you get something usable or an expensive paper weight with them. they then proceeded to try to do it to others by selling the same dangerous crap excuse for a frame id returned to them again with the same 'perfect condition, no damage' description. wouldn't buy anything off them ever again Evil or Very Mad Thumbs Down
