So i found a set of OEM SRT10 off a 2005 SRT10 wheels for sale that i am going to take a loom at, they have been podercoated black and are not original finish.
The seller claims they came off a Friends truck i just want to make sure before i buy. Is there an easy way to tell if they are OEM what kind of part numbers ect... should i be looking for stamped in the back? Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks alot.

Look for the Chrysler emblem on the inside.


I heard that but I also heard that the reproductions may also have the Chrysler stamped on the back....someone told me that OEM will also have "speedline" or made in Italy on the back

Yes should have "Made in Italy" and/or "Speedline", but I know that there's on 2 different versions..."OEM" and "replica", a "reproduction" that is signed off by Chrysler would have the emblem as well since they would be authorized to use Chrysler specs. If it doesn't have the emblem then you can bet that they're "replica" and not "OEM".

The knockoffs better not have the Chrysler on the backside...or shouldn't, that's huge copyright infringement.

Not sure if you looked at them yet, but there is a substantial weight difference as the replicas are cast and the OEM's are forged, I believe there is about a 15-20# weight difference
