Default Z06 Speed Line Wheel

I just took my chrome Z06 wheels off and noticed they had "speed line" imprented on the wheel.

My question is are these reproduction wheels? or OEM?
How heavy are they compared to reproductions?

Yeah I saw where they said GM on there.
Any ideas on the weight of these wheels?

The factory wheels are very light--definitely less than 20 lbs--maybe 17 lbs as I recall.

The chrome adds around 2-3 pounds per wheel.

Can't get to the actual numbes, but the Speedlines are about a pound lighter than the '01 Alcoa's. Fronts just under 20 pounds, rears just over 20 pounds.
