Default Are these wheels OEM ?

Hey Guys

Picked up a pretty mint set of what appears to be a 2013 + oem, 18 inch wheels and tires

They do not say toyota on the back which both of my 07-09 sets do.

Is there a way to tell if these are OEM or Reproductions?

Thanks

Looks similar to what I have on my 2010 LS.

Should be a part # on the inside of the wheels I would think. If it's there, just Google it and see what you have.

Yep they are definitely the same style, they look identical but no toyota mark so just wanted to be sure

I will check my spare tomorrow morning and see if there is any information present on the rim.

I checked my wheels again and I was mistaken that I have same wheels. Though it looks like it, it is different. I am sorry for incorrect information.

They look nothing like the 19 inch wheels that are on my 2010 LS 460L.

Those are the 18' wheels that came standard on the 13-17. I would think they would say TOYOTA on them...but the style and finish look identical...

I did check my spare and even though it is a different wheel, it has no Toyota markings anywhere on the rim.

The stylized JWL logo indicates conformity to Japanese Light Alloy Wheel standards.
Similar to DOT Department of Transportation certification for tires, UL Underwriters Labs for electric devices...

It may be after a certain year Toyota stopped manufacturing them and an outside company does now.

Toyota does not make many parts, most of it is outsourced to Aisin, Denso and other businesses. I believe, they make frames and assemble everything else from parts supplied by other companies. What could have happened, Toyota changed the supplier or/and changed marking notation.
