Default Replacement rims

Looking at some different rim options. Saw these on fleabay (I know).

https://www.ebay.com/itm/21-Audi-S8-S7-A8-A7-S5-Wheels-Rims-Black-OEM-Factory-21-58898/123580422900?hash=item1cc5f79af4:g:9xIAAOSwE7JaWFO c

How can you tell if rims are oem or fakes? Also, do the A7s require tire sensors or does the MMI detect low pressure or problems via abnormal wheel rotations?

Thanks all in advance

Yep these are oem wheels based on the parts number and the code stamp JWL which Is highest grade approval of wheel tolerance, durability and trueness. You don't need tpms on Audi's as it's a sensor that detects low pressure from outside due to rotation that's not normal.
