If they are BBS they should have a raised lip around the valve and also BBS & VW stamp round the back. Not sure about the Ronal wheels though.

They look genuine to me. At least from the front anyway. The little raised grove at the side of every spoke always seems to be nch more defined and deeper on all the reps I've seen. The rear will nail it for ya though.

some of the genuine BBS monza have small diameter metal valves as well so that could be a sign of genuine, also all BBS wheels use Hollowtech which lightens the wheels thin Red Robin has posted weights (minus tyres) but you might be able to compare weight as tyres weights should be available from manufacturer.
