    If they're stamped GM , I'd say they're genuine. Hurry up and buy them before I do. Lol.

    Just be aware you'll still need to machine the centre hole to 69.7mm, which will cost you another $75-$100.

    was another thread i found here on the same topic and them VE SSV's have a different part number although everyone on that thread thought they were fake because they were too shiny, the part number on them was 92217688 and the dealer said they could of just been Holden by design or something,
    Is this genuine, VE SSV 19" WHEELS?? [Archive] - Australian LS1 and Holden Forums

    Put it this way. For 650 you can afford to buy them and if you dont like them you could get 650 back selling them in Melbourne or Sydney

    Nah mate
    There just little weights which keep the wheel balanced so at high speeds it doesn't vibrate. Every wheel is different I believe. So I wouldn't worry about them.

    And yer it should it just looks like brake dust.

    Pretty sure they are balance weights for when they get wheel balance or could also be wheel weights which i assume would be fitted once wheels are made to correct cast inconsistancies. Happy to be proven wrong

    Seeing as he is so willing to take photos for you, try and get him to do some weird shit like wear one of the rims as a hat while wearing his wife's undies and post the results on here for a laugh.
