nah, the guy i got them off swore he bought them genuine from HSV and they came in HSV boxes etc etc and that the guy at the store said they where the first series before they went to champagne colour etc etc. I dunno tho, im pretty sure they are just similar and they are actually called venoms or something like that im pretty sure. either way I actually like them better then the fatter/less sharp looking r8's, but thats just my opinion!

wouldnt there be a stamp on the wheel somewhere to prove the HSV originality or something?

could be, might have a look. didnt buy them for the wank factor of being "genuine", just liked the look of them. any idea where the stamp is likely to be mate?

may be behind one of the spokes so you may need to take it off and clean all the brake dust if its not on the face of the wheel. woth a gander anyway. clear everything up.

Hey Shaun, I know you probably wouldnt want to hold them so ill take them off your hands in about 2 weeks if you've still got them..
