The only way to tell for sure is to look at the back.
They should be stamped " made in Japan" and "RAYS ENG." right in between the lug holes.

I don't have access to the back. Anyone know just from the front? The bolts line up on 5 bolt te37s?

Usually the real ones the valve stem lines up with one of the lug nuts. Which in your pictures they dont. Probably doesnt mean that for suure they are real but thats one way to tell..

The ones above are the ones I want to buy. Just want to make sure they are real before I buy them. I think by the pictures the valve stem lines up with one of the lug holes.

as much people pay for these wheels, they should at least stamp rays eng or something similar by the valve stem lol, at least my cv-pro has stamp on front of the wheel.
