    Check the markings on the backside of the rims.

    If they are genuine the should have the hsv logo stamped into the back side of the rim, least that's what I read on wheelking.com which sells genuine rims

    Do they have to be genuine for you though at $800?

    Buying them new is ~$2000 for a set of 4 premachined to fit pre ve cars

    EDIT: beat me by a minute hozy

    Not exactly sure, maybe a tyre shop? Have a search cos I'm pretty sure it was covered last week, and most comments on that stated around $60 a wheel I remember

    Also do they have tyres on them, cos if they're off a ve you may need different tyres so they don't scrub on your vz

    Again do a search as that's been covered a few times and it should have all the info you need :)

    But it will put your speedo out of whack, you need the correct tyres otherwise they will be too big and will scrub

    Yeah if they are genuine then that's not a bad price.

    That's what it'll have on them if they are genuine.
