R105 SERIAL# OR CODE ON RIM

I bought my car used & was wondering if it has JCW R105 rims. They are black and are 18". Are there any other markings on the rims to look for? Not sure if they are copies or the real thing.

Thanks

The wheels have embossed data on the interior side of the spokes. The JCW R105 come in Matte black and Burnished finishes. A dealer told me that there has been one design change to the tire bead area so there may be different part numbers for the old version.

current part number on the wheel with Matte black finish:

6 778 428
