They are deffo reps.
You can tell (apart from what was posted above) by the smaller VW badge in the middle. The genuine Monza IIs have quite a big badge/cap but replicas can be supplied in either 5x100 or 5x112 so the cap has to be smaller to allow for the smaller PCD drilling. It may be the picture but the bolt holes look very slightly oval too which can be another giveaway. [/anorak mode off]
They still look nice though. Even genuine Monza IIs often don't still have the original colouring as many have been re-furbed by now due to their terrible lacquer issues.
There is no such thing as a Monza I stealth, it is either a 17'' Monza or an 18'' Monza II for a mk5, which are UK only designations. Normaly Denver or Detroits in other markets plus there are other designations by other importers around the world.
