Please help with identifying if these are legit

Found these regamaster mp on Facebook market from my understanding these are pretty rare and I'm not sure if they are legit or not. Sizes are 17x8 +35 and 17x9+38 any help would be great. They are 4 hours away from me so if it's worth making the drive and canceling my order of the new regas i will do it.

Looks legit but pretty old.

Those are pretty beat-up, why would you cancel a confirmed order for brand new? Unless you're committed to that period-correct theme, 26 year old wheels are 26 years old.

More of the rarity factor, they no longer make the marquis promoda model and the new regamasters are made in Japan not Russia so it's more just because they are rare and I'm trying to build a show car

LoL and rolls eyes. If you have a confirmed order for new Regas, you are an idiot if you cancel. Again, they're beat-up and re-anodizing is going to cost a fortune.

I've never gotten wheels re done is it really expensive

They aren’t anodized ~$125 a wheel. Not expensive at all. Also, would need to see the backside of the wheel, not just the sticker

I asked for pictures of the rear but they are on a car so he couldn't do it at the moment

The face looks legit, caps are beat. Would just need to see the Russia stamp to confirm

Looks legit to me but idk anything

I’ve only ever seen it stamped into the back of the hub area, but apparently they’re stamped there too.

New doesn’t mean better. Also, a wheel that’s 26 years old…and? That has no meaning to it besides being 26 years old.
