You can clearly see the stamps in my earlier pic on page 1 of this thread, passenger's front tire...the forum wont let me upload it again. So i guess i dont have replicas, but how do you explain the offset, or lack of, on the rears then?

I thought you could vaguely make the stamp out on them from that photo, but it was too close for me to call. If you say the stamp is there then that's all the proof you need.

I wouldn't worry about offset, there should still be a very minor amount judging by the AMGs I looked at the other day vs. my replicas, which have a deep dish appearance (which I quite like actually). If you have the correct 19x8.5 front and 19x10 rear setup you would indeed notice the very slight offset on the rear wheel. The other thing is do you know what tires were fitted front and rear? If you have the 295's in the back then you will have the correct 10" width wheel to accomodate them and all's well.
