I have had a set of 10x7 alloy wheels for a while, and haven't been able to figure out what they are, but last night through random googling of other mini things, discovered that they are (or are knock off's of) Gianni Potenza's.

Now, I'm wondering 2 things:

1) Besides being stamped with JWL and VIA (which, as far as I'm aware, indicate they passed testing for road use) how else can I tell if they are cheap crap, or real Potenza's?

2) Due to there being no way I'm going to use them in the foreseeable future, what are wheels like this worth if I choose to sell them?

And before I get all the comments about them never being legal to use on the road due to stretched tyres and what not, I already know, and that's not the information I'm after.

Thanks in advance.

if they are the same wheels i think of you should ask this guy, he should know his wheels

2nd last post. The SSA centre caps came with them when I got them
Definitely don't think they are SSA wheels.

SSA make cheap copies, so they probably are the original caps.
I like 'em though.

Double post again (triple post?)

Well there's some information I didn't know.

So, they might be knock off's of the original design, but the VIA and JWL markings on the inside of the wheel still imply they have been approved for road use... ?
