So he actually uses an anchor for braking? Still awesome, but it needs bigger brakes.

Those are the original: JP Mk18 17x8.5"
The ones that I've posted are the replicas: Ocean Mk18 18x8.5"

It's a daily driver with B230F, so bigger brakes are not required

I think i might actually like them better as 17's better than 18's. I guess it depends on the stance of the car and camber.

How can one distinguish the JP's from the Oceans?

Yes, but there will be 17" replicas too if I remember correctly.
But the original is ET 0 and the replicas have ET 6.
Also the JP have text on the back of a spoke.

Right, I thought in MK18, 18 stood for the size in inches.

Common misconseption, it's just the 18th wheel design from JP
