How to tell if rims are OEM or replicas?

[MichaelSE]

At some point in my Suburban's lifetime, the PO exchanged the stock 20s for 22" CK916s. Or maybe it was ordered like that - I really don't know. I got it from a dealership and have no way of contacting the last owner. Anyway, I want to switch to new-style LTZ 20s because I prefer more sidewall.

Then I realized that when I eventually sell the 22s, I'd have to know whether they are real or replica... Are there any ways to tell?

Should have a GM stamp on the back of the spokes

Thanks man, I'll check it out next time I have the rims off. Or better yet, can it be seen from just looking under the truck, or would it be covered by the brakes?

Where are you located ?

I'm in the Las Cruces NM area.

You could probably see if just from getting under the truck and behind the wheels

Take it back to the dealership where you bought it and have them run the VIN number and all the options will be listed, among other things like service records.
