Ho do you tell the Genuine Porsche 964 RS 17" Magnesium Wheels from the 17" alloys that came on the 968CS?
What markings do you look for when 'shopping' for them?
Do they weigh a lot less - details anyone?

Thanks

The word "Magnesium" (or its German spelling if different, not sure) is cast into the wheel...
