I’m no expert, but others are.

I do wonder if the barrels are Work or aftermarket

They look real, and mint. That fb group doesn’t allow fake wheels I don’t think.

Wheels have been rebuilt from what I can see: barrel, lips, centercap and hardware are most likely aftermarket, while the face should be original Work. If it is all original, the inner barrels will have Work decals, individual bolt heads have "Work," and the lips and barrels will have Work engraved along with serial numbers. The valve stem caps will show "Work" on them as well. It also has the wrong valve stem, the original comes with a 90 degree stem that pokes through the face from the back halve/barrel of the wheel. Is it worth $3k? That is up to you.
