Exclamation How to recognize old genuine wheels?

Hello.

In my area, have some sellers sell BMW wheels. But i can not know it is genuine or not.
I have searched for information online, but there is no way to know. I also searched for images of other users using genuine BMW wheels, but I have seen some differences. Same partnumber, but different writing, different writing order ....

Can you tell me how to identify genuine wheels? What documents does BMW have about these products? Genuine new wheels are expensive, I can't buy them. Please help me.

Thank you

You have to investigate more and get the genuine part numbers for the wheels you want but in the end you may be happier with after market wheels if it's that bad in your neck of the woods.
If you still want used genuine items try to get pictures from the internet of the writing on the inside of the wheels you want and/or you can always write to BMW Munich for advice.
