Without seeing the back its hard to tell, however they are missing the width and offset number that is usually on each side of the valve stem hole.

German-made Borbet wheels. No Porsche part number, so probably replicas. Decent wheels, though.

Definitely replicas. High offset for 964 or late 944, not SC or Carrera
Definitely Borbet. One of the pics shows the name. Nice replica wheel.

Borbet made Cup 1 replicas are actually very nice, they have correct spoke shape unlike Mille Miglias which have slightly more squared spokes.

It's all about how much they weigh. My Cup-1 rims are very heavy. They really slow the car down.

Just for the record I had two sets of factory wheels one with the markings on either side of the vale stem one without, both had the same markings on the back.
