"ssr" sticker is supposed to be on the left "type c" sticker on the right
so im guessing these are knockoffs with real ssr stickers which can be bought

Looks like the studs are in the wrong holes on the rims...

knockoffs are kinda rice imo unless they deliver the same specs, i.e. weight.
The "SSR" should be on the left spoke in smaller font with cyan/black/red stripes. Im guessing it says "type C" on the other spoke. it should say "Competition" with the C in white font with black background instead of blue. The spokes are way too thick. The spokes stick out too far, they should be inset more in comparison to the outer lip. The spokes dont curve outward when it meets the outer lip. The wheel looks like it has both 4x100 and 4x114 patterns. The lugnut seats are bored into the side of the inner circle.

SSR type c's came in only gold and white. SSR competitions, US version only came in gunmetal with a polished lip. those aren't real.
EDIT: also, the grooves where the lugnuts are supposed to go aren't supposed to be there, it should be perfectly flat.

to me, that doesnt look like the lip on the SSR type C's .. the SSR type C's ive always seen, have a more smoothly rounded lip.. this one looks like it has more of a flat downward slant like the SSP type C's my cousin used to have..
