Replicas or not?? I'm confused.
Ok... about CUP 1's.
I found a set and theses are the numbers written inside the rims:
1.) 7Jx17AH-ET55, GK-AlSi12Mgwa, 965.362.124.01 SW
2.) 7Jx17AH-ET55, GK-AlSi12Mg wa 965.362.124.01
3.) 9Jx17-ET55, GK-AlSi7Mg 965.362.128.00 SL485 Made in Italy
4.) 9Jx17-ET55, GK-AlSi7Mg0.4wa, 965.362.128.00 SL485 other # TO6E, B586 Made in Italy.
What do we have here? Real or not?
I just read (after a serach) that CUP I's are made in Italy? Is this correct.

Those appear to be valid 11 digit Porsche part numbers, so I don't think they're replicas.
The 'Mg' makes me think they're magnesium lightweight Cup wheels (from the RS), but I've never seen one in person, so I'm not sure.....best to run the #s thru PET and see.

Need your help with this. What would this number indicate?
Thank you in advance
- 7JX17 AH-ET55 GK-AlSi112mg wa
- 8JX17 AH-ET52 GK-AlSi112mg wa
Thank you in advance

7JX17 = 7" wide wheel, J-type bead seat, 17" diameter.
ET55 = Offset of +55mm
AlSi12Mg is the type of metal alloy. It stands for aluminum, silicon, magnesium. Many aluminum alloys have silicon and magnesium in them. I think the 12 represents the average silicon content.
Don't know what the other letters are.
Magnesium Cup wheels say "magnesium" on the outside lip, as I recall.
