If it says, "Make in USA", it probably wasn't made here, and isn't OEM.

Porsche or any car manufacturer doesn't make their own rims. everythings outsource by companies like bbs, ronal, speedline, etc. if you paid $1200 or less for your turbo wheels, they are fake and prob made in china or Thailand.

They are most likely authentic if made by Alcoa as Alcoa also made rims for certain style Lamborghini wheels as well as other car manufacturers. Sometimes they wont have a Porsche logo stamp on the reverse but it should have a Porsche part number on the back side.

No. You will find 7P... or similar number, not 958... stamped close to the hub but not casts on the spokes. OE Turbo2 rims are also produced in the USA.
As I remember you will find Porsche triangle stamp close to number on backside.
