997.1 C2 aftermarket wheel markings

I bought this car last year thinking it had factory Turbo wheels, but just discovered (disappointingly) that they are aftermarket.

I was interested in replacing one of the 11" rears. The only identifying marks I could find (with the tires mounted) are in the picture below.

I assume the "IS=46" is the offset, but there is a manufacturer mark on there as well. Any idea who makes this wheel?

I also found it interesting that the offset on that aftermarket wheel is 46. I've read in many places that the factory 19" turbo rear wheels (997 362 162 09) that fit my car (narrow body) have a 67 offset. Doesn't this imply that that the wide body turbo wheels (997 362 162 02) that have a 51 offset would also fit?

That's not a manufacturer mark.

Well, at least we know the country of manufacture now, right?
