Can anybody tell me how you can tell OEM Cup I's from replicas? I have the chance to buy a set of these

 

They look original. I think I can just see the off-sets stamped on either side of the valve stem, which is a sign that they are original. Do you have a better picture? The wheel nut hole spacing looks right. I think the Mille Miglia copies have holes that are closer to the hub cap. Also, the shoulders of the spokes look more rounded than the copies, which are sharper.

 

Unfortunately it is the only picture I have and I have not seen them myself yet. You've given me some good tips as to how to tell them apart. Thanks!

BTW he is also selling a set of D90's

 

There should be an OEM # cast into the interior of the wheel.

 

As Meek says, the slightly more rounded look indicates to me they're originals. Reps also have a flatter tyre rim face, and are slightly lighter in colour (more obvious when comparing alongside each other). Wish I'd now stuck out for originals rather than reps when I bought my car.

 

I can see the offset and wheel width stamps next to the valve stem. OEM wheels have those, replicas do not.

 

Must be real....got a Porsche badge in the middle

 

Thanks everyone hopefully I'll get a chance to go have a look this weekend. What is a good price for 2x7x17 and 2x8x17? I'm really looking for 9x17's at the rear but still won't pass on these if the price is right...

 

Agree with the other comments - bolt holes not touching the centre is an easy-spot sign of originals.

 

Sono quasi certo che sono i modelli originali, penso che tu puoi comprarle sensa problema ! I cerchi sono in italia ?

Orginals cup wheels to me

 

[reminded of this scene in 'Cars']

 

That wheel looks to be OEM, hold out for the 9's IMHO....

 

Milano had a close replica but you can tell the difference by looking at the OEM stamp on the inside of the wheel.

 

So I have a quick question- I have a set of wheels with offset and width stamped next to valve stem hole, Porsche part number on back of wheel, have all the looks of a factory wheel but they are 7 1/2's which I thought was a replica only size.

There is a 7.5" OEM wheel....the part # starts with 965 and is listed in Adrian's book. I had a pair and sold earlier this year.
