Check my wheels

I just bought these style 135 wheels to put on my e60 first picture I believe these are genuine wheels but in the second I’m not sure what to make of them the spokes are different and the markings as well has anyone ever seen this? Third is a close up image of the markings on the mystery wheel

They obviously are not the same wheels. Where did you buy them?

The place I bought my 166 reps is no longer in business. You can usually find used OEM wheels on Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace if you're patient.

What did autorimshop say about selling you different wheels?

They have told me that I need to submit a request with proofs on what’s wrong with the wheel and then I get a return shipping label to send it back so hoping I have no further trouble, third wheel came and it looks fine I hope the fourth will be too, but yeah no other option then to be patient

They look just fine but, in the back they're a little bit off. They didn't trim down nicely the rough edges.
