I've got this 19" FPV Silver Argent wheel for sale. Someone contacted me, claiming that it's a fake imitation.

My understanding was that the genuine FPV rims have got the FPV logo on one of the spokes, whereas the aftermarket copies don't have the FPV logo anywhere.

Thus, I figured that this wheel is genuine.

Yes? No?

Is there a definite rule for identifying the genuine rims?

Looks genuine to me - most aftermarket don't have the ridge in the centre right and they are usually a different size (20 or 18 inch diameter)

Phil, where do you have them listed for sale?

I've got the one Silver Argent for sale: http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/como/wheels-tyres-rims/fpv-19-silver-argent-wheel/1073259447

Also got a set of three wheels that were on the car when I bought. Only the three, though. Two have got good tyres, one is bald. They clear Brembos. I'm thinking $250 for the three.
