What are you actually asking of the community, here? Do you want us to re-assure you the pictures suck and that absolutely nothing can be determined from them? If so, yup. Do you want us to determine if these wheels are real Enkei wheels or not? No one could tell from those pictures. Why don't you ask for the seller for a picture of the Enkei stamp, which should be on them somewhere.

Ask for photos of the back of the wheel, should be Enkei stamps there as well.
|
As Tim said if they are real there will be a mark. Judging (prejudging?) solely in the fact the guy taking the pic could not even be bothered to move the shit on the floor out of the frame and that they are apparently scattered around a closet my GUESS would be fake as hell.

Although a quick google search has shown me that many companies do in fact make replicas. Which is odd, since the RPF1's are a very inexpensive option when compared with other light weight wheels in 17x7, 8 or 9. As others have said, there will be an enkei stamp on the wheel. If they're cheap enough though, why not just buy them anyways? And yes, that dude is a slob. |
Also the width & offset could be a clue as well (backside of wheel).
|
I have not seen a fake rpf1. Similar design, yes. Fake, no.
|
People make replicas of the RPF1? Who would be so cheap as to get a replica when the authentic is so affordable..
|
Maybe they want it more affordable-er.
|
Looks like RPF1/2's to me.
Just kidding, I'm no help. Just buy from a seller that you can be sure they are the real deal. Real RPF1's are very inexpensive as it is. |

If your looking for a set that are legit could check with this guy. |
Legitimate RPF1's are very affordable. I'd save a little more money and just get a new set vs buying a used set, especially one that you're questioning the authenticity of.
|
What I find strange is that the seller couldn't manage to take a picture of all 4 wheels together...
|
yea the dude had to have moved the wheels around, why the hell did he not put all four in one picture and clean up a little? No way would I trust that seller.
