Spotting fake 343M wheels?????

Does anyone know what to look for to be sure they are getting legit OEM wheels? Can anyone provide photos of the back side of the OEM 343m's and possibly someone with knockoffs as well? I'm picking mine up in a week and I want to be sure I'm getting the real deal.

Thanks

Reps won't have the BMW logos/part numbers stamped on the back side of the wheel so if the set you are picking up has it you are safe.

Dont know much about F10 reps wheels but my old E60 had many reps made with BMW logo and number so be careful guys.
China and Taiwan make very good reps now.
