Anyone Know these WORK Wheels? *PICS*

I'm thinking about buying these wheels, but I'm afraid they might be knock-offs or bootlegs, as I'm unable to find any photos of this model. I'm hoping one of you know/have seen this wheel before, and it's authentic. Pictures below.

if they are original work wheels then they will have stamping on the hub or the wheel center /spokes and a sticker should be present as well.

I've seen that eBay listing...
If it's real, it's an old design...I've never seen it myself.
Most of the VS series are mesh design with the exception of the VS-KF...

It makes me wonder...

I'll check for the Work Embossment. No Emboss, no sale. Thanks for the heads up guys.

Hey everyone,

Thanks to all who responded, turns out the wheels were legit. Embossed on the wheel hub, and on each rivet. I was told the 5zr wheels were designed after this model. The only down side, is i discovered a fatty crack in the wheel lip that's been ghetto sealed. Think its repairable? Other than that, I love these wheels.

On with the pics!
