Carlsson 1/16 BE (Real or replica?)

First of all... I've searched. but no answer. (Please see below)
https://mbworld.org/forums/search.php?searchid=2041844

My Question:
How can I differentiate the real Carlsson 1/16BE from the fake one??

I've found a seller trying to sell his 19" Carlsson 1/16 (see picture below and the price is rather cheap!


What you guys reckon? Real or fake/Replica?

Thanks in advance.

original carlsson has the carlsson text engraved around lugholes. look for posts by frankw, he's had those, among other wheels.

I cant tell Easily its not a BE ....
cause i think the BE has Deep dish .. and a bit chrome..

i ahve carlsson replica too but its 17" CP 1/16

ur looks like CP 1/16

mine has chrome on the outter part of the rims.. but inner is all alloy.

and mine are pretty much exact, but only thing wrong is that it said CARLLSON

and its 17. real ones only make 18 and up
