How to tell if BBS rims are original?

[ebayer]

Hi,I am considering to purchase a used car which the original owner has said comes with original 18" BBS rims. Is there anyway for me to verify that they are original? I tried googling for it and the BBS website does not have a section teaching consumers how to tell if the rims are genuine.Any insight would be appreciated.

I would love to take the rims out to weight them but the owner might not be too happy about it :68:
