Exclamation Offset Markings on Rota Wheels?

So, i've just received a sugestion to buy 18' P45Rs, but, according to seller, he can't tell, what ET is, cause there are no ET mark on the wheel. I suspect a fake.
Could it be true, that there are no ET mark on the wheel?
Thanks.

ET is what the OFFSET is of the wheel.

look on the inside of the spoke engraved into the casting.... rotas dont have any stickers or anything.... because they are fake.

I not knocking them, i rock reps for non-track use.

I honestly have no idea but probably not a good idea to buy wheels from a seller that doesn't know the offset of his wheels.

Where are you purchasing them from?

A local company have imported a few drift cars (R32 and S14A) from Japan (powervehicles.com). Both of these cars are "equipped" with P45Rs. Now the manager suggests me to buy a set of them (silver or black) from one of these cars.
