FWIW not all of the factory wheels have the numbers next to the valve stems.
A factory wheel will have the Porsche part number cast into the rear side of the wheels.
That lets you know its a factory part, just going by numbers next to the valave stem is not an accurate way to tell

I just sold the wheels off my 92 964 because they were chromed - the part no's and offsets were correct but they did say made in Italy on the castings... I was curious too... Those Italian cars start with the "F" word...

Cobalt is right,
The cups and some other rims such as the 993 targa rims are Speedline made in Italy. I visited the factory in 97 and saw the porsche rims being coated !
I have some old racing cups (different offset and larger holes) directly bought from Motorsport in Germany and they are tagged made in Italy :
