C2 Turbo wheels: Real or Fake?

[BesideTheBox]

I'm looking at a set of 17" C2 Turbo wheels for my '86 widebody Carrera. I actually like how the C2 wheel accentuates the flares, whereas the fuchs seem to soften the flares. To me, the car looks more modern. Let me know what you think.

I weighed the 17" C2 Turbo style wheel/tire combination versus the 16" Fuch wheel/tire combination. The C2 Turbo combination is 14 lbs heavier per wheel. Wow, that was not expected. Is the weight of these C2 Turbo wheels an indication that they are aftermarket versus OEM? I find it hard to believe that an optional OEM wheel would be that much heavier than the 16" Fuchs.
Here is a picture of the inside of one of the 7.5" C2 Turbo wheels.

The wheels are also cast with "Made In Italy" and the number 418.74 is stamped on the inside as well. Notice the excess slag material that dripped into the channel between the top two wheel stud pillars. Again, this is something that I would not have expected from an OEM wheel.
Thank you for your input.

those are aftermarket wheels.

those wheels were never made by Porsche for the correct offsets for an older 911.

From the factory they had offsets for the newer 911s with ABS sensors.

Factory Fuchs are forged wheels (lighter)
Fuchs were the last forged wheels offered by Porsche.
Cup 1s and on were all cast wheels (heavier)

if the wheels you show in the pics were correct factory wheels they would have factory parts numbers on them...

Definitely copies .. genuine have part numbers...

Cant beat the look of Fuchs in my opinion..

Those are after market Mille Miglia wheels. On the street they will do fine, probably to heavy for track. I used them on my 87 911 for street and track, then went to Fikse FM-10 wheels for track. Big difference. I still use the C2 wheels for street. I think they look much better than the Fuchs, but not as good as the Fikses.
