Authentic OE Nismo Rays?

Im interested in a set of 2013-14 nismo wheels in gunmetal. Looks like z1motorsport and a few others have them. Can anyone vouch that the Z1 wheels are Nissan OEM,

well: Available from the factory on the true, 2013-2014 NISMO...
could be interpreted a couple of ways and ya I google the part numbers but its a lot of money to just trust a website. The forum vouches for z1 thou so Im good.

Z1 just buys them from Nissan, so if the there is a problem Z1 will tell you to call Nissan and handle the issue and Nissan will tell you call Z1 and handle the issue. That's what happened when I bought the 2015 Nismo Bumper.

Too bad those links say 'Out of Stock'

I'd check with local dealerships as well.
