I know OEM's are 17x9 while Repro's are 17x9.5. I also believe there is a stamp on the back of one of the spokes that should say GM. Don't hold me to that though.

The very first GM issues units had a small GM logo on the face of the wheel, near the hoop, between the spokes. Eventually that went away.
