Default Wheel Identification Help

Any wheel experts out there?
I can not identify the wheels on the 2017 Grand Sport I recently purchased. There are absolutely no visible markings.
I am confident they are not factory but can't tell if they are forged wheels or not.
The closest wheel I found online was the MRR NES FG-08 but it is not identical.

They really look nice. Do you want forged wheels or not want forged wheels?
