Are these OEM 19" Rays legit? [PICS]

Dear all,

Hi! I'm looking at purchasing a set of OEM 19" Rays to mount on my 04 G35 Coupe. The seller has sent me a bunch of pictures (the rims are powdercoated).

However, I'm not sure how to tell if the wheels are legitimate. He took a lot of pictures, and the RAYS ENG engraving and NISSAN FRONT/REAR on the back side of the tire look legit, but I'm not sure.

If you could help me out I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks

I've only seen one wheel posted ever that looked like our oem rays but was by a different manufacturer. Even buying those new would be more expensive in most cases than buying used rays from our marketplace. Wheels look good, and the chance that it could be a knock-off is so immensely slim anyway. If you really are scared of them not being authentic, just weigh them.

Hey guys, thanks for the replies --- but out of curiosity and with all due respect, how do you know that these are real?

Is it a specific type of marking or engraving or lettering I should be looking for?

Thanks once more!

~19-20lbs per IIRC. Search for the specific weight(s) on here in one of the FAQ's/stickies or use google.
