Looking to buy this wheel from a friend, but the back just looks "off" to me. Opinions?

This is all I have. I can try to get a better scan from him. If I had the card in front of me I'd be able to determine it no problem.

I'll post a scan of mine so you can compare, but it looks fine (at least it does on crappy school computer monitors). What in particular is concerning you?

Back is darker than usual, it might be a dark Beta fake. You can easily confirm this with a light test.

Concern was actually the top two corners, but after looking at it more and comparing to ABUgames' scans, I think it looks fine.

Also, the mark on the top border is on all real alpha wheels, so thats good.

@death: color is actually spot on.

Mods, you can close this.
