yep those are epsilons. they should be marked with a sw or a msw on the rear of the center piece. epsilons are also known as southen or south west wheel in japan you will not find them marked as epsilons. the rim shells on them are spun allum the enki imposters are not three piece and the shellls are not spun. that is a couple of ways to tell.

On the inner shell, between the bolts, you should find a stamped 3 digit number. The last 2 digits relate to the half shell width. All mine begin with a 5, (15" rims) yours's may not since they are 14" rims. If they are true Epsilons, that is the 1st 14" set I have seen. Post a bigger pic, front and back.
