Original Work Sizing Stickers?

I bought some Work Emitz with what looks like the original Work stickers on the barrel of the wheels.

Does Work only put these stickers on their wheels when they leave the factory or is there a possibility that they have been reWorked lol at some point in time?

They won't supply you with new ones, no.Those will be original.

HOWEVER, they could have just been rebuilt with another set of OEM barrels that just happened to have the stickers on them.

Work no longer puts sticker on them as of 2010ish, the specs are now etched into the metal.

Cool cool. Thanks for the solid info man.

But what about the lips and hardware? Is there anyway to tell if that's original Work equipment?

A lot of the OE work barrels are stamped with a little work logo on the outside of the barrel.

Also, oem work lips have a beveled edge rather than a rolled edge like 90% of aftermarket lips.

As for hardware, all work BOLTS are stamped "work" with the W next to it. The nuts however, no way to tell... but also no way to care lol you can pick up aftermarket 10.9g nuts for cheap that work just as good.
