Anybody know about the Nishiki A3 700c aluminum alloy rims?

So I found a Nishiki A3 700c rim and tire on the side of the road and I can't find anything on it, so I was wondering if anybody knew about what it is or was including the MSRP or common cost.

Nishiki was a marketing company, they didn’t make bikes or bike parts. They stuck their labels on stuff others made.

is the rim true and no hops? What about brake track wear? Hub cones, damaged or super smooth and clean? Front wheel or rear? Freewheel hub or cassette? Zinc coated spokes or stainless?

could be ready for the recycle bin, or max $25 item.

No bike brand makes all the parts that are used to make up a bicycle.

Possible exceptions would be behind the 'Iron Curtain'. Warsaw pact countries,
