Fuchs - genuine or copies?

Does anyone know how to acurately tell whether Fuchs are genuine or copies? I understand the genuine wheels are forged (and hence stronger) while the copies are cast (and are potentially weaker). I have read the cast copies are often (but not always) thicker to compensate for the weaker material strength but shouldn't the genuine ones have some sort of stamp or engraving on them somewhere?

Can anyone assist?

Thanks

genuine are forged aluminum and replicas are cast as you have stated.

og fuchs should have part numbers:
