Default are these FG monster slicks fake clones ?

i found this german dude on ebay http://www.ebay.de/itm/4x-Monster-Tr...item3a6c622a74 because im putting fg slicks on my 5b just wondering if anyone has known of him or dealt with him and if they in particular are fakes? , because i have found another site selling the same kinda wheels and other forum discussion around the net people are saying that people are now cloning the FG slicks and i guess the rims too , but he seems legit because it comes from germany i dont know why he would even need to buy and sell clone rims and tires when he could get them directly from the fg website or place right there in his hometown .

these are monster size slicks...i had a set a few years back when a french company made them...soft foams so roll around a bit but grip well once they're well warmed up...i liked them...ran 2 rears on my fg baja with 2 soft fg truck slicks on the front...

they're not an fg product, cheapest place to get them is alibaba. I had 4 total and still regret selling them, would have been a blast on my hurrax's on road
