hard to tell from pic but if you just feel the back side of the assembly bolts, you should feel a nut.
the nuts and bolts are used to hold the face in place.

almost all the fake wheels aren't two pieces = fake assembly bolts

also, BBS LMs will have the casting and model number stamped on the face
