Default Are these genuine Work VS wheels?

I'm looking at buying a set of wheels, which are claimed to be Work VS. The only thing is, I've done some looking around on the net, and I can't find any genuine Work wheels (either VS or otherwise) which look the same, leading me to suspect that they could be fake.

Can anyone confirm that there is, or has previously been, a Work VS wheel which looks like this?



cheers

I can't find any Konigs which look the same either.

Other opinions please!

If you can't find any on the web that look like that then chances are pretty good their fake.

They kinda look like Excel RH-5's to me.

Yeah I had those on my old Del Sol back in the day. They are 5zigen 5ZR's in a polished form. Only thing I did notice is the 5ZR's have black plastic rivets VS these metal ones. Not sure now. Hmm...

all work wheels have specific markings around the inside of the lip. jic, monoblock forged etc and they should even have some kind of serial numbers on them. my volks have stickers inside the wheels. those are boo-boo fake.
