Maybe this is a dumb question. I recently bought an AP1 and it has a set of AP2V2 rims on it. The rims have little raised "JW" symbol (sorry, don't know how to describe it but I think most of you will know what I mean) on them. This symbol is the same as what is shown on other OEM Honda rims for my Civic and Accord. I was assuming the replicas would not have this? My car is in storage for the winter or I would take one wheel off and see if there are any indentifiable marks on the inside. Any thoughts? Because of the marks and the Honda center caps, I am assuming they are OEM, but thought I'd check.

 

If this is the logo you're referring to, it's not an Enkei logo. It's the JWL logo.



The JWL standard (Japan Light Alloy Wheel standard) is a set of requirements for alloy wheels set by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (Japan) that must be met for all passenger cars in Japan. The JWL mark, cast or forged into the wheel, indicates that the wheel has been self-certified by its manufacturer to meet the standard. There is a related standard, JWL-T, for truck and bus wheels.

The Vehicle Inspection Association of Japan (VIA) independently tests wheels for JWL or JWL-T compliance. Wheels that have been tested will bear the VIA mark in addition to the JWL mark. - Wikipedia.com

I'd say they're legit OEM Honda wheels. They're at least JWL certified, so even if they're a knock-off they're as safe or safer than the original OEM Honda wheels.

 

Vivid is correct.
