Default Porsche cup 2 alloy wheels ... or are they ???

Hello
I have a set of 17 in cup 2 wheels ,,, but I am concerned that they may not be genuine Porsche ??? as it seems the two rear wheels are not a matching pair and I am unsure if the front two are genuine either , I have looked the web and what's for sale on E bay and both types are there but asking here for information please .
the pictures show the inside of the wheels , as you can see the two rear are different , the fronts are both the same but are they genuine ??
thanks in advance
Bryan

Look for the "V" style Porsche parts logo, or a Porsche part number to confirm their origin.

First picture looks aftermarket, second picture looks genuine, third I don't know. But it's hard to actually say without close ups.

That said, the wheels in the second and third photos are so corroded I wouldn't drive on them. Unfortunately those should go to the scrap pile.

Yes, those are repos. Sorry. Also look for the wheel width and offset on each side of the valve stem on OEM wheels.
