They’re not the newer style i can tell you that because they don’t have the scalloped inner spoke faces that BBS uses now. And IIRC, BBS puts the bolts in from the inside face not the outside. I know for certain that’s don’e on their race wheels but I’m almost positive they do it on all of their 3piece wheels. If they’re a knock off they did a good job visually. ---

the center caps can be snapped into a Honda CX wheel if they wanted to. Stampings on the wheel will tell the true story. ---
